I have to agree that Chuck Jones' Tom and Jerry output is hit and miss. None of them are as terrible as the Gene Deitch cartoons, but at the same the best of them are not even close to those of the 40s-mid 50s, which range from very good to classic. Snowbody Loves Me is one of his better ones. It is an early entry of his, his fifth in fact and much better than those before it. It isn't perfect the action sometimes is slow and not all the gags work. However, the animation does look beautiful, by far one of the best-looking Tom and Jerry cartoons with Jones in charge. The music is sensitive to the action and pleasing to listen to, without being dull like Much Ado About Mousing. The story is very cute and is enough to warm the heart, the ending is very sweet. Tom and Jerry are very likable characters as ever whether as friends or enemies(there is a good point made though about the lack of consistency in Jones' cartoons in how their relationship is conveyed) with personalities that make them very memorable. In conclusion, a lovely cartoon which is neither a classic or abomination. 8/10 Bethany Cox
