      • The Daffy Duckaroo is a Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Norman McCabe. The cartoon was released on October 24, 1942, and stars Daffy Duck. The film is set in the American West, and Daffy plays a singing cowboy (a genre of Western film popular at the time).


      Plot


      On a donkey and pulling a trailer, recently retired singing cowboy Daffy Duckaroo moves from Hollywood to the American West, where he comes upon an Indian encampment. He is about to run away when he is wooed by an Indian girl. He serenades her and follows her into her teepee.
      The Indian girl, actually a New Yorker named Daisy June, says she would love to be Daffy's girlfriend, but her boyfriend, a hulking Indian man named Little Beaver with a reputation for taking scalps, will never allow it. When Little Beaver arrives, Daffy hides in a dresser and emerges disguised as an Indian girl himself. Little Beaver quickly forgets Daisy June and falls for the costumed Daffy.
      When Little Beaver discovers Daffy's ruse, he chases Daffy through the Painted Desert, the Petrified Forest and into Los Angeles until he calls for aid with smoke signals. The Indians surround Daffy's trailer, and in a non sequitur ending, they remove the tires and run off, only for an Indian to return them a few seconds later as they do not fit his golf cart; a sign reading "keep it under 40" is seen on the back of the cart as the cartoon ends.
      As with most Warner Bros. cartoons of the era, the cartoon is peppered with then-current pop culture gags . A shootout during the chase contains no bullets, as Daffy has saved them "for the Army" and the World War II effort; the "keep it under 40" ending is also a reference to the 35 mph speed limit imposed during the war to ration gasoline.


      1968 Redrawn Colorized Version


      In 1968, most of the Old Looney Tunes shorts that were in black and white were in color. One of those being this one. However with them redrawing it and coloring it, the Animation and quality looks a bit scrappy.
