Mysterious Mose (5:48)
Betty Boop Wiki; IMDb; Wikipedia; YouTube

A 1930 black & white cartoon featuring an anthropomorphic poodle who would, over next couple of years, appear in various shorts where she eventually became a fully human character, Betty Boop. In this film, Betty is awakened late at night during a storm, when she hears various spooky noises. She becomes so frightened that her negligee jumps off of her a couple of times (though we don't see anything too risqué, since she's under covers). But eventually she gets out of bed, starts looking around the house, and singing "That's Mysterious Mose." Eventually a shadowy figure enters her house and becomes Mose (portrayed here by a doglike character named Bimbo, who appears in various other shorts from this era; in spite of being a lot less anthropomorphic than Betty, I guess they're usually a couple). Mose starts singing the song, about himself, and doing very surreal things. But then some other creatures appear and do even surrealer things, and they take up the singing and instrument-playing. And I don't really know what else to say. This is something I looked up online several years after I first saw Graveyard Jamboree, which I liked a lot more than I liked this. But I guess this was okay, though I'm sure I'd like Betty's later cartoons, when she's fully human, more than this.
