Smile, Darn Ya, Smile! (1931) watch online

Smile, Darn Ya, Smile! is a 1931 American animated comedy film. It is the third title in the Merrie Melodies series featuring Foxy. It was released as early as August 15, 1931. It is directed by Rudolf Ising.

This is one of only three Merrie Melodies cartoons to star Foxy; the other two being Lady, Play Your Mandolin! and One More Time. Its plot resembles that of Trolley Troubles, a short featuring Oswald the Lucky Rabbit which Harman helped animate for Walt Disney.

A gag suggested by animator Bob Clampett for the film has characters from the trolley's parody advertising posters (Smith Brothers and others) humorously come to life and perform business. This joke would become a running gag across Merrie Melodies films, especially those with involvement from Clampett.
