The Hardship of Miles Standish

Laserdisc version

The Hardship of Miles Standish is a 1940 Merrie Melodies directed by Friz Freleng. The short subject features Elmer Fudd.

Plot

In this version of "The Courtship of Miles Standish", Elmer Fudd is messenger John Alden, sent to give Miles' love letter to Pricilla. While delivering the message, however, her house is attacked by Indians, and John is the only one who can save her.

Notes

The prints of "The Hardship of Miles Standish" on The Golden Age of Looney Tunes LaserDiscs had the 1940 red, white, and blue rings with a black background ending card replaced with the 1947-48 Merrie Melodies ending card for reasons unknown. Hence no print with the original ending card has ever been released on home video.
