This has to be one of my favourite "Tom" and Jerry" cartoons. This time, it's "Jerry" who has his accident prone novice "Nibbles" following him around whilst "Tom" has a post working for the nasty Cardinal charged with protecting a lavish banquet. He knows he must stop the "Mouseketeers" at all costs, else it's Madame La Guillotine that awaits him. Of course, we all know there's virtually no chance of him outwitting his tiny and ingenious rodent counterpart. The settings with suits of armour, a giant hog roast and an even larger tower of cheese provide for plenty of set piece antics as poor old "Tom" comes a cropper time and time again. As usual, the jolly score adds to the mischief and with the enthusiastic young mouse proving something of a plaything too, there's plenty of swash and buckle and you should never hide behind an apple during a swordfight! End-to-end stuff that's good fun and just needs a little bit of Ronald Colman.
