Assault and Peppered is a Merrie Melodies cartoon featuring Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzales and other mice. Released on April 24, 1965, it was directed by Robert McKimson and produced by the award winning DePatie-Freleng, the production house responsible for the Pink Panther and other series of cartoons distributed by MGM. Mel Blanc voiced Daffy Duck, Speedy Gonzales, and the mice. Its run time is six minutes, the standard length of a Warner Bros. cartoon since pre-48 days. The title of this cartoon is a play on the term "salt and pepper". ==Synopsis== This cartoon is a semi-remake of Friz Freleng's Bunker Hill Bunny. A group of starving mice are admiring Daffy Duck's Mexican plantation (aptly named El Rancho Rio Daffy), all the while wishing to have some of his home grown food. Evil land baron, Daffy, who isn't particularly fond of beggars, suddenly appears and angrily whips the mice for "starving on his property." Unfortunately, Speedy Gonzales interrupts and startles Daffy, at which the little black duck declares war on the mouse. The two proceed to do battle in private forts, resorting to everything from cannon fire to mine fields, with Daffy continually getting blown up. At the end, Speedy (tired from doing battle with Daffy) quits and goes home. Daffy then declares victory and rewards himself with a 21 gun salute. Unfortunately, as he pulls the strings to fire his cannons, the cannons flip in his direction ("Mother!") and blast him one-by-one (with Speedy observantly keeping count). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Assault and Peppered」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
