My Green Fedora is a 1935Warner Bros.Merrie Melodies animated short film directed byFriz Freleng.[3] The short was released on May 4, 1935.[4]
It features a song, "I'm Wearin' My Green Fedora", written by songwritersAl Sherman,Al Lewis, andJoseph Meyer specially for this short.
Peter Rabbit is assigned by his mother tobabysit his baby brother Elmer. Peter reluctantly does so, though nothing he tries will stop his baby brother from crying. What works is Peter dressing in some old clothes, including a greenfedora. He sings a song to match the hat. When Peter is not looking, a weasel snatches the baby and runs off to the tunnels underneath the house. Peter gives chase and manages to take care of both the weasel and Elmer with a garden hose.
TheMotion Picture Herald gave it a below-average review due to the perceived scariness of the weasel, calling it "Not quite so good as some of this series. A little too scary for the kiddies."[5]
