Matinee Mouse

Tom is chasing Jerry through the back yard. Jerry escapes to a bird house. A bit more chasing. Jerry crashes into the wall. Both decide they’ve had enough, and wave the truce flag; they go to the movies of themselves, which is an excuse for another bargain clip show. The truce doesn’t hold, and eventually the characters on screen stop and take notice.
★★☆☆☆
Curator’s rating
A compilation, framed as Tom and Jerry going to the cinema and watching their own earlier cartoons. It draws on the Hanna-Barbera originals rather than the Jones films, which makes it an odd hybrid — new framing animation wrapped around footage in a visibly different style.
