Buzzy Boop at the Concert is a 1938 Fleischer Studios animated short film starring Betty Boop's young tomboy cousin Buzzy Boop.[2]
For years, it was considered a lost film, until a copy resurfaced in Russia in 2019.[3] The film was subsequently restored by the UCLA Film and Television Archive and uploaded to their official YouTube channel.[4]
Notes
- Beginning with this film, Betty's appearance was updated to have a more human-like head and a taller body. This was likely done to distance and modernize the character from her previous flapper-like image as seen in previous short films.
Preservation
Buzzy Boop at the Concert was preserved and restored by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. The restoration's funding was provided by ASIFA-Hollywood in collaboration with the Packard Humanities Institute. The restoration premiered at the UCLA Festival of Preservation in 2022.[5]
