''Love's Labor Lost'' is a short animated film by Bray Productions and is one of the silent Krazy Kat cartoons. The film is based on a play by William Shakespeare. ==Plot== A rat is sitting on a rock at a park, wondering how he should spend his day. He then sees a charming girl hippo in his surrounding, and therefore develops affection for her despite the size difference. Although a boy elephant was first to come and court her, the rat finds this a minor problem and thinks of a way to break them. Just then, Krazy Kat comes to the area. Krazy begins playing a song in his banjo, hoping to win the rat's friendship. The rat, however, appears to be uninterested, and grabs Krazy's instrument before knocking down the cat with it. The rat then approaches the girl hippo and tries to serenade her with the banjo. Because the boy elephant has a phobia of rodents, the rat easily drives out the pachyderm who runs away in panic. After fleeing the park, the boy elephant finds himself just outside a tavern. He then notices a barrel of beevo right next to him. The elephant then drinks the contents of the barrel and somehow gets the courage to get back at the rat. Back at the park, the rat and the girl hippo are still around dating each other. In no time, the encouraged boy elephant returns to settle the score. After jumping on and smashing the rat to death, the boy elephant regains the girl hippo. Before the two hefty lovers happily walked away, the boy elephant covers the rat's corpse in dirt and lays a flower pot just beside. Krazy shows up again to see what become of his would-be-friend. Saddened by this, he plays a solemn tune in his banjo, and his tears shower upon the flower pot. Seconds later, a flower grows from the pot and the rat's ghost appears on it. Annoyed by Krazy's gesture, the ghostly rat strikes the feline off his feet with a cinderblock before ascending to the great beyond. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Love's Labor Lost (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
