Round 12: Tossup 2

A common action done by this character draws on a Clark Gable gag in the hitchhiking scene of It Happened One Night. A line originated by this character titles a screwball comedy (10[1])by Peter Bogdanovich in which Ryan O’Neal plays an aloof musicologist. This character is shown to be the sadistic author who has been changing settings at the end of a rhymingly titled short film whose (10[1])protagonist begins as a musketeer. While disguised as Brünnhilde, this character teases a man dressed as Siegfried in a Wagner-inspired short by Michael Maltese and Chuck Jones for the Merrie Melodies. When a hunter points a gun at him, this character calmly says that it is “duck season.” (10[1])For 10 points, “what’s up, Doc?” is a catchphrase of what Looney Tunes character who often dupes Elmer Fudd? ■END■
