Wikipedia article'Red Hot Mamma' is a 1934 Fleischer Studios Betty Boop animated short, directed by Dave Fleischer. Plot summaryIt's a snowy winter's night, and a shivering Betty is trying to sleep. Shutting all the windows isn't enough, so she lights a roaring fire in the fireplace and falls asleep on the hearthplace rug. The heat of the flames soon turns two roosting chickens into roasted chickens, and causes Betty to dream that her fireplace has become the gate to Hell itself. Betty explores the underworld, and sings "Hell's Bells" for Satan and his minions. When Satan tries to put the moves on Betty, she fixes him with a (literally) icy stare, freezing him and all of Hell. When she falls through a hole and onto an icy surface below, Betty wakes up to find the fire out with the windows open and her bed frozen, and she goes to bed, this time under a pile of warm quilts. NotesClips of the redrawn colorized version were used in the compilation movie 'Betty Boop For President: The Movie' (1980). CensorshipIn 1934 the film was rejected by the BBFC in the United Kingdom, because it depicted Hell in a humorous manner, which was deemed blasphemous. Sources | |
