Gorilla My Dreams

Gorilla My Dreams is a 1947 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes theatrical animated short, released in 1948, starring Bugs Bunny. The short was directed by Robert McKimson and written by Warren Foster. The story is a parody of the many 'jungle' movies that were prominent in the 1930s and 1940s, including the Tarzan movies. The title is a play on the expression "Girl o' My Dreams". This is the ninth Bugs Bunny cartoon in which the title does not refer to "hare", "rabbit", or "bunny". The short featured Gruesome Gorilla, who reappeared in Hurdy-Gurdy Hare and as a boss in Bugs Bunny and Taz Time Busters. The cartoon was remade in 1959 as Apes of Wrath.
