Duck Amuck is a classic short film from 1953 featuring Daffy Duck. In the film, Daffy finds himself at the mercy of an unseen animator who constantly changes his surroundings and even his own physical appearance. As Daffy tries to navigate through the ever-changing world, he becomes increasingly frustrated and breaks the fourth wall as he addresses the audience directly. The film is known for its surreal and innovative animation techniques, as well as its comedic and sometimes heartbreaking portrayal of a cartoon character struggling against his own reality.
Schlock-movie producer J. Pierpont Ginsburg, after declaring, in a Yiddish accent, that "talking pictures are in their infantry," decides to put all of his savings into a big-budgeted musical, starring the sensation of Paris (with a bad French accent), Adore Renee, and a swishy leading man, Reginald Whitlock. Meanwhile, his daughter, Judy Ginsburg, gets involved in a romance with Ginsburg's Gentile lawyer, John Applegate. His efforts aren't helped any by the projectionist who mixes up the sound-disc reels, with the images not matching the dialogue and sound effects, during a showing for prospective film buyers and exhibitors.
