Spellbound
Gregory Peck is depicted in the opening minutes, cutting his meat with a cut-throat razor, a reference to his role as a possible muderer in Spellbound(1945). MBG 119.11.0.36 (talk) 15:28, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Leopold Stokowski "cameo"
Early in the cartoon, a conductor deposits a coin in a jukebox (billed as "Leopold and His Chifafa Five"). As soon as the jukebox blares a dance tune at high speed, the restaurant's patrons dash onto the dance floor, dance frantically, and as soon as the music ends, they dash back to their tables. "Leopold" was classical music conductor Leopold Stokowski, who had appeared in two Hollywood films and who had collaborated with Walt Disney in the production of the animated film Fantasia (1940). The "Chifafa Five" was a reference to the popular song "The Frim-Fram Sauce" (1945) by Nat King Cole, in which the word "chifafa" appears. The dance tune from the jukebox was "Nagasaki" (1928) by Harry Warren and Mort Dixon.


 * Are you sure the tune Leopold's jukebox plays isn't "We're In the Money" ("The Golddiggers's Song").TheBaron0530 (talk) 20:28, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
