Red Hot Riding Hood (her voice ?)
|
|
|
Who does her singing voice in the cartoons? And she doesn't speak, right?

Someone asked about this a year and a half ago.
In Red Hot Riding Hood (1943), The Shooting Of Dan McGoo (1945) and Wild And Woolfy (1945), the identity of the voice of Red is not recorded.
In Little Rural Riding Hood (1949), Imogene Lynn voiced the title character, while Colleen Collins voiced City Red Hot Riding Hood. I believe these were both speaking roles! This was Daws Butler's first time in a cartoon; he had an uncredited role as the City Wolf.
Swing Shift Cinderella (1945) had Collins as Cinderella in the speaking role, with Lynn providing Cinderella's singing voice. This was really a remake of Red Hot Riding Hood, with Red Hot doing the Cinderella character.

I think the Red Hot character does say some dialogue in a short saying, something along the line, that they, a pair of wolf eyes, were bothering her. 
I would like to know, while on the subject of this classic creations from Avery, are there any DVDs with his shorts on; even it is just a short from Avery as an extra on DVD of a film, as the renowned French DVD box-set of all his MGM shorts may be unavailable in the UK for some time to come.

Avery's Doggone Tired (1949) has fallen into the public domain. Hence, it's in all sorts of PD compilations, DVD included.
His The Flea Circus (1954) is an extra on the DVD on the movie Les Girls. Wags To Riches (1949), starring Droopy and Spike, is an extra on The Barkleys of Broadway (1949), part of the five-DVD collection Astaire & Rogers Collection, Vol. 1.
If there aren't more Avery cartoons as extras to other MGM films, I'm sure there will be many more soon.

Thanks, but I didn't know what you meant by PD compilations.

PD = public domain. Thus, PD compilations are made up of various cartoons which are in the public domain and are no longer copyrighted by the respective studios.

Several are available at Amazon.co.uk, but they're in Region 1.
These include Top Ten Forgotten Cartoons and Cartoon Crazys 2, both good compilations containing Doggone Tired.

This voice actor must have been, if it was the same one doing Red Hot Riding Hood for all of them, very talented to imitate voices of such popular film stars at that time.

I think the Red Hot character does say some dialogue in a short saying, something along the line, that they, a pair of wolf eyes, were bothering her. And when she does speak, she talks like a different screen actress each time. In Red Hot Riding Hood she talks like Kate Hepburn, in Swing Shift Cinderella she talks like Joan Crawford, in Wild and Wolfey she talks like Mae West, etc.
I thought in Swing Shift Cinderella she talked like Bette Davis.

I think Colleen Collins did every Red voice over from:
Red Hot Riding Hood
The Shooting of Dan McGoo
Swing Shift Cinderella
Wild and Woolfy
Uncle Tom's Cabana
Little Rural Riding Hood
I love them all (except Uncle Tom's Cabana because I have never seen it before).

I just thought I would mention that Little Rural Riding Hood is currently available as an extra on the DVD of MGM's Battleground (1949) from WHV. I saw a copy of it yesterday in the DVD stacks at my local Tower Records. I was low on cash that day, so I didn't snatch it up!

Ooooh I LOVE Red! She has a sexy voice and I like you I was wondering the same thing. I know she was voiced by Imogene Lynn in a couple of cartoons, but I'm not sure if she did in all of them. Red does speak in all of her cartoons except for Uncle Tom's Cabana.
