"That Woman" at 34:00.... is June Foray, b.1917, who voice Rocky (w/Bullwinkle), Cindy Lou Who, Nell Fenwick, Granny (on Tweety), Natahsa, Witch Hazel, Jokey Smurf, Lucifer (the cat), Ursula &d countless other voices in film. She is a national treasure and a founding member of ASIFA !! I'd kill to meet her in person.

I owe such a debt to Mr. Mel Blanc. His body of work was integral to a huge piece of my youth. How well he did what he did! And how he will be missed forever more.

[CoachCJDoyen]

How the hell does this even have a dislike. How can anyone hate on Mel Blanc?



[loudandfastisbest]

It's nice to share, thats what the internet is for many thanks.

[CesarManiaX]

Mel Blanc would've loved Cartoon Network



[JOSEPHVENTURABRAND]

Now that's a true Legend! Rip Sir Mel Blanc.

[WestLAGuy]

This documentary was created for the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Vol 6, which was released in 2008. I have had the great fortune to have worked for and been associated with the Blanc family for the past 40 years and was honored to have been part of this excellent acknowledgment of a truly remarkable 20th Century artist.

[RAMSES777100]

[diabloulloa]

[acer3573]

I was on vacation in Paris in July '89. My family missed our train back to Germany and I bought an English language newspaper and learned that Mel Blanc had died. I still remember that to this day more than 20 years later.

[LadyTwentySeven]

God, what a sad death this guy had! That day the world lost a real genius. R.I.P. Mel Blanc. And thanks for making my chilldhood so happy!

[tttomclark9355]

Great film about a great talent!..had the joy of spending time with him during one of the stops on the college tours the spoke of in the film...blessed to have had him buy me dinner and share his talents with my frineds and I

Thanks for the posting

[PISSGUZZLER]

Mel Blanc is simply a great man and an exemple and inspiration for everyone.

[tantenium]

tnx for the up-load!!! i grew up with looney tunes & now that am all grown up i cant help but laugh ,no matter how many times ive watched a certain episode of this cartoon show on the tv or dvd with my niece & nephews..thank you mel!

[Marshalsify]

R.I.P. Mel Blanc.

[MrFrontrowkid]

I had a 78rpm record of Big Bear Lake (Capitol label). I never knew it was a popular song at the time. On the flip side, Mel did "I'm just wild about animal crackers" in which he did the Porky Pig and Bugs voice. At the age of five, I appreciated that song better than the other. There were Looney Tunes story records which had a storybook attached where you could follow along with the record. Early form of Show and Tell. Thanks Mel for helping me to read.

[Dean100able]

Mel is a true legend! I was in awe of him growing up as a kid. I would be in awe seening him make personal appearences and watching him do the voices to all the cartoons I used to watch. I doubt we will ever see or hear another Mel Blanc.....

[AlexSmithMusic]

I'm so glad Mel Blanc was able to shape our culture the way he did. What an amazing pioneer.

[69THEFINISHER]

if you have never seen a person loved by the world .....u just watched that person THE MASTER!!!!

[MrSunlander]

Indeed, thank you!

[chuckiejay]

The amazing story of an even more amazing human being!! Thank you for posting this: it is something we needed to see.

[SuperJNG18]

Bugs, Daffy, Porky, Sylvester, Tweety, Yosemite Sam, Foghorn Leghorn, Henery, Charlie. Pepé le Pew...Is there any voice this many COULDN'T do?

[epearson101]

I just shared this with the next generation of Mel (and Looney Tunes) fans... Thanks for sharing! Mel is one of my all-time favorite people!

[keysersoze78]

One word best to describe Mel is LEGEND!

[jbthenurse]

What an amazing story. he was a MENSCH ! Thanks for posting this.

[Leathercowboy55]

What a wonderful man to GIVE so much to so many....

[MegaRYANNNNNNN]

a man of a 1000 voices but the number 1 voice artist

[Usernamesarebunk420]

NARRATED BY BRAIN!!!!!!! YESS!!!!!!

[whitedaddy4u]

I love it! Jack Benny once cracked up Mel's wife, unintentionally. After the accident mentioned at the beginning, Mel was laid up for months. Benny came to visit him and innocently asked Blanc's wife "Is Mel home?"

[NickMaloney92]

Aww man this is so good. It's amazing to see his life from all of these different perspective and even the whole people who aren't even alive yet will appreciate his work. I mean he died before I was born and I look up to him. Thanks for the upload. Oh and that Porky Pig send off ending :'(

[amoo2007]

thank you so much for the upload. everyone should watch this.

[sterlin0325]

that was a sad picture at 1:03:20. :*(

[RayPointer]

There us no doubt about Mel Blanc's contribution. But in all fareness, let's not overlook Jack Mercer, who assumed the voice of POPEYE starting in 1935, and continued to be the voices of several other characters for Fleischer and Famous Studios cartoons for decades. In actuality, Mercer preceded Blanc. But being part of the east cost circle, Hollywood fails to remember him.

[KhalilGabriel]

i would make a time machine just to go back through time and go get his autograph 

[woody1948able]

The last actuations was in Roger Rabbit and in the jetsons

[Astraldragon1]

@woody1948able , true but his last original voice was Heathcliff in the early 1980's.

[sr166]

Thanks!

[andross51]

I can actually imitate a lot of the looney tunes just like mel blanc. MAY HE RIP!! (May 30, 1908 – July 10, 1989)

[pawnsacrifice1]

A true true legend. RIP

[drwinslow70]

Mel was one-of-a-kind. He was kind, generous, and an amazing actor. He made my own childhood fun, and I had a rough childhood at times. Thank you for posting this video. I enjoyed every minute.

[cptstyler1]

mel blanc is my most favorit movie actor ever. i grew up with loony tunes hes a legende

[Superstarseven]

I can tell that it's Maurice LaMarche doing the Voiceover. Another Voice acting great.

[slosh29]

Where was this taken from?

[slosh29]

I have never seen this before..I enjoyed it quite a bit! I have been looking for info on Mel Blancs biography but of course mostly I could only find things about him in Looney tunes on. I dont know why there isnt more out there about his life and not just his voices.

[MichaelArmando]

Mel Blanc a true artist and a legend ......Thank you for sharing It gave me a laugh when I needed it most

[akumaten]

Mel Blanc is truly a legend...

[LegendKiller1fan]

The greatest voice actor of all time right here folks.

[MEponyfan]

Very great documentary ever!

I LOVE YOU, MEL BLANC! YOU'RE THE MAN, DOC!

[MrH3d4ch3]

seriously one of the best documentaries I have watched, makes me miss the great old cartoons, I cannot for the life of me remember watching something with as much joy in recent years, as much as the joy I feel watching looney tunes or merry melodies

[SillyRollieMcmuffin2]

I usually don't watch videos that are an hour or so long, but I watched this video.....Best hour of my life.

[Griffami]

Rip mel blanc :(

[BRRGames]

RIP MEL BLANC
