The Booze Hangs High

The Booze Hangs High is a Looney Tune featuring Bosko. It was released in November 1930.

Synopsis
The cartoon begins with a shot of a cow walking away from the screen (an inside gag from "Plane Crazy"). Bosko walks in and they start to folk dance around. When the cow starts to dance, his pants fall down provoking Bosko to laugh out loud upsetting the cow. He walks off screen and is never seen again. Bosko then walks over to his horse laughing. The horse laughs. They both laugh! Bosko then dances to the carriage that's attached to the horse. Bosko grabs a whip and turns it into a violin bow. He plays the horse's tail as a violin. Realizing, he's out of tune, he turns the horse's ears like tuning knobs to tune the horse's tail. They begin their ride in a tune with Bosko playing the horse's tail and the horse dancing like an ice skater and a broom before Bosko takes a rake and plays it like a banjo while the horse tap-dances. A mother duck and her three ducklings are walking and dancing before stopping to dance again. One little duckling doesn't dance because the duckling has to use the restroom. He tells the mother duck who advices him to go off-screen. He comes back and the four ducks jump into a pond. After this, Bosko goes back to play the horse's tail. After about thirty seconds, Bosko goes off his horse to tend to feeding the pig and two piglets garbage. The pigs eat the garbage messily until one piglet finds a bottle of booze. They try to open it but fails until one pig has an idea. He uses tail like a corkscrew to open it. Once they do, they pop the bubbles to the tune of "How Dry I Am". They both take a swig and instantly get drunk, giggling before the father pig finds the booze and takes a swig of his own. The drunk father pig "bah's" to "One Little Drink" then tosses the bottle which unfortunately lands on poor Bosko, getting him drunk. He begins to sing (also singing with the pigs like a barbershop quartet) "Sweet Adeline" with the pigs. The father pig goes back to his "One Little Drink" solo but regurgitates a corn cob. Embarrassed, he picks up the corn cob, flicks off a kernel and opens a door to his stomach and puts it back in his stomach. To reach a very low note, Bosko pulls on the pig's tail which ends the solo. After the solo, Bosko and the pigs do a dance one last time.

Censorship
Censored on some airings is the scene where the pig regurgitates a corn cob.

Goofs
At the last second where Bosko and the pigs say "Aye!" at the end, Bosko's nose turns white.
