About Looney Tunes: Big-Hearted Bosko (1932)
Big-Hearted Bosko is a 1932 American animated short film directed by Hugh Harman. It is the nineteenth film in the Looney Tunes series featuring Bosko.
Bosko goes ice skating while Bruno follows him. Bruno is encased in snow at one point, while Bosko narrowly misses numerous holes and jumps across ice to avoid falling into the lake in graceful fashion. Bruno falls into the lake and calls for help, only to emerge from a log when Bosko worries about him, much to Bosko's chagrin. Bruno spots a basket with noises coming out from it, frantically calling for Bosko, who is delighted to find a baby in it and takes him home. Back home, Bruno rocks the baby in his cradle as Bosko plays a violin, which fails to calm the baby down.
