Talk:Clean Pastures

Other sources
There are at least two other sources that this article could draw upon to make it more comprehensive:


 * Beck, Jerry, and Will Friedwald (1989). Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies: A Complete Illustrated Guide to the Warner Bros. Cartoons. Owl Books. ISBN 0805008942. (Should have a few paragraphs on the cartoon that might give Beck and Friedwald's opinion of it or mention other important details.)
 * Sampson, Henry T. (1998). That's Enough Folks: Black Images in Animated Cartoons, 1900–1960. The Scarecrow Press. ISBN 081083250X. (May include reviews from contemporary sources that would be a good contrast to the more modern reviews cited in the article.)

I own both books, but they are in storage back in the States. If anyone has access and can add any relevant material, it would be much appreciated! — Brian ( talk ) 09:06, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

-Just watched the cartoon. I just wanted to point out that when the dumber angel jumps down from heaven to harlem, his robe comes up and reveals that the character has a tail. Seems notable to the discussion of racist content. I still like the musical number though 24.207.226.140 (talk) 20:30, 15 May 2009 (UTC) -Also Calloway's part of the musical number is reused with the animation slightly edited for the episode Have You Got Any Castles? 24.207.226.140 (talk) 20:37, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Later commentators surmise...
The sentence in the lead: Later commentators surmise that the censors... is non-NPOV, irrelevant and 'weasel-worded'. What the Hays censors actually objected to is well documented, as is represented later in the article (and elsewhere). ~Eric F 184.76.225.106 (talk) 03:35, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Nagasaki
It is claimed in various parts of Wikipedia, and elsewhere on the internet, that the jazz standard "Nagasaki" appears in this cartoon. Unless the versions on youtube are edited, the song does not actually seem to appear in the cartoon. Sojambi Pinola (talk) 13:37, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
