Betty Boop's Trial is a 1934 Fleischer Studios animated short film, starring Betty Boop.
[edit] Synopsis
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
When handsome motorcycle police officer Freddy pursues Betty, she accidentally breaks the speed limit. Freddy is forced to arrest her and take her to traffic court. Betty pleads her case in song, but the judge and jury are more interested in Betty's body.
[edit] Notes and comments
This short features the first appearance of Freddy, Betty's semi-regular boyfriend.
One of the last Betty Boop shorts made before the effects of the Hays Office were felt. One scene has Betty's skirt whirling up, briefly revealing her panty-clad rear end.
A scene briefly showing a police officer in blackface was removed from later colorized prints.
