Summary

Description
English: Title card for Hamateur Night, a seven-minute animated short film released to theaters by Warner Bros. on January 28, 1939. Directed by Tex Avery and written by Jack Miller, the film was a part of the Merrie Melodies series produced by Leon Schlesinger and distributed by The Vitaphone Corporation. The premise of the film is rather simple; it features a vaudeville-style amateur talent night wherein successive performers are mocked and jeered by the audience for their bad acts. The primary character of this short is an early prototype of Elmer Fudd who lacks the speech impediment of the character he evolved into.
