    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      For a quick sequence where we see a close up of Bugs' hands massaging Elmer's scalp to the notes of a short piano solo in the opera, they are deliberately drawn with five fingers for the sequence so they can believably follow the tune.
    • Goofs
      When Bugs first appears as the barber, the shaving brush on his smock pocket disappears in some shots
    • Quotes

      Bugs Bunny: How about a nice, close shave? / Teach your whiskers to behave. / Lots of lather, lots of soap. / Please hold still, don't be a dope. / Now we're ready for the scraping / There's no use to try escaping. / Yell and scream and rant and rave. / It's no use, you need a shave!

      Elmer Fudd: [as Bugs slashes him with razor] Ooh! Ouch! Ouch! Ow! Ooh! Ooh! Ouch!

      Bugs Bunny: There, you're nice and clean / Although your face looks like it might have gone through a ma-chine.

    • Alternate versions
      On ABC, some of Elmer's gunshots were deleted. Possible editing was also done to reduce the depicted violence in the scene of Bugs slashing Elmer's face with a razor.

    Amazing, the best Looney Tunes ever!
    I love Bugs Bunny, and this one is just amazing. It cracks me up every time. This is the best, with the Hunting trilogy and the Marvin/Bugs cartoons behind, not close. Number one, just fantastic, 10/10 ***** out of ***** and an emphatic A+++++++!
