About the Art: "You're All Under Arrest!" is taken from the 1946 classic "The Great Piggy Bank Robbery," directed by Bob Clampett. In "The Great Piggy Bank Robbery," which is a satire on film noir detective movies, Daffy Duck becomes Duck Twacy, who investigates the theft of the world's piggy banks. "You're All Under Arrest!" demonstrates its uniqueness in its parody of the Dick Tracy-like villains who surround Daffy. At one point, because of the parody of the villains, legal contention flared up between Warner Bros. and Chester Gould, the creator of Dick Tracy. But once he saw the cartoon, Gould was so impressed, he decided to drop his issues. Because of its offbeat style and story movement - an obvious influence in "The Great Piggy Bank Robbery," the cartoon has been honored as not only a cartoonist's cartoon, but as one of the "spontaneous miracles" to come out of Warner Bros. in the 30s and 40s. The Library of Congress awarded "The Great Piggy Bank Robbery" as one of the best cartoons ever made and went to the great expense of striking a pristine print for their permanent collection.
