Mysterious Mose - 12/26/1930
The Fleischer brothers believed that animation's great strength is that it frees filmmakers from the constraints of reality. They put this philosophy to work in Mysterious Mose, a funny, scary, spooky and absolutely surreal Betty Boop Talkartoon about a supernatural character, produced in 1930.

This is Betty Boop's third cartoon appearance. One interesting feature of this cartoon is that it has two different Betty Boops in it, or, more properly, one Betty Boop drawn by two different animators who have rather different ideas about what she should look like!
