Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox film Carrotblanca is a 1995 Looney Tunes cartoon short. It was originally shown in theaters alongside The Amazing Panda Adventure (in North America) and The Pebble and the Penguin (internationally). It was subsequently released on video packaged with older Looney Tunes cartoons and was included in the special edition DVD, and later HD DVD and Blu-ray, releases of Casablanca, the film to which it is both a parody and an homage. At the time of release, WB did not own the rights to Casablanca (such rights were with Turner Entertainment – they still technically hold the film today, but WB became responsible for distribution a year after the short's release as a result of their parent company's purchase of Turner in 1996). Like the original film, Carrotblanca is set during World War II.
Unlike the previous modern Looney Tunes shorts, this short was not made by the Greg Ford/Terry Lennon team nor Chuck Jones Film Productions. It was produced by the Animaniacs writing team at Warner Bros. Feature Animation. Carrotblanca was the only Looney Tunes short produced by that group of writers and the Feature Animation division.
The short involves nearly all the major Looney Tunes characters in roles from the film, including Bugs Bunny as Mr. Bugs, Daffy Duck as Sam Duck and Pepé Le Pew as Captain Louis. Some characters use their real names, others the names of the characters in the original film, or parodic versions. Several minor Looney Tunes characters can be seen in the background (such as Pete Puma as a waiter wearing a kaftan and fez, and Giovanni Jones and The Crusher as the maitre d' and doorman; a customer at a table is Gossamer; Sam Sheepdog as General Pandemonian's driver assistant). It also features a cat named Sylvester Slazo and his wife, Kitty Ketty.
Plot
General Pandemonium gets a frantic call from Foghorn Leghorn saying that a secret German document has been stolen, and immediately heads for the Carrotblanca nightclub―the Cafe Au Lait Americain featuring "Eleanor Roosevelt's All girl revue" with his friend, Sam Sheepdog. At the nightclub, Tweety, the actual thief, convinces Mr. Bugs to take the document.
Meanwhile, Sylvester Slazlo and his wife Kitty Ketty arrive at the club. Kitty attracts the unwanted attention of Captain Louis aka Pepe Le Pew, but she scratches him and throws him into the wall. Kitty, who is the ex-girlfriend of Bugs, asks Duck Sam to play her favorite song. The general suspects Slazo may know about the document and binds him in his office. Kitty pleads with Bugs to help Slazo out of this. Though Bugs is initially reluctant due to the fact that Kitty broke his heart, he goes to the General's office nevertheless and confuses the General himself into jail.
Slazo and Kitty escape on the plane for Toronto, New York City and Cucamonga, as Bugs watches them go... except that they find Pepe on the plane working as a steward. Louis asks Kitty for some tea, causing her to jump out of the plane in fright, seemingly without a parachute, landing right in front of Bugs. They kiss, then the parachute opens, covering them and they pretend to be ghosts.
