Hollywood Scout (1945)
** (out of 4)
Pete Smith short about animal talents in Hollywood. There are a few good tricks shown but overall this thing is pretty boring and doesn't contain the laughs of most good Smith shorts. There were other shorts out around this time that talked about the animal talents in Hollywood but for some reason this is the one TCM shows most often.
Have You Ever Wondered? (1947)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
Pete Smith short takes a look at small thing that you might wonder about ever so often including whether men or women are better drivers or if certain foods mixed can cause you to get sick. This is one of the better shorts that I've seen from Smith as it remains interesting throughout and also has quite a few laughs especially one sequence, which deals with wigs.
