Is My Palm Read is a 1933 Fleischer Studios animated short film starring Betty Boop, and featuring Koko the Clown and Bimbo.
[edit] Synopsis
Betty visits Bimbo the fortune teller for some advice, but Bimbo is only interested in making time with Betty. Bimbo's crystal ball predicts that Betty will be shipwrecked on a desert isle, but rescued by Bimbo. When Bimbo reveals himself by removing his fake beard, a happy Betty embraces him. Unfortunately, a group of ghosts burst in on this scene, and chase the two to the desert isle. Betty and Bimbo eventually escape from the ghosts by tricking them into going off a cliff into the sea.
[edit] Notes and comments
This short was colorized for a 1970's re-release. It was also released under the alternate title, Professor Bimbo.
Some prints are missing two risque scenes. In one, a strategically place light reveals Betty's nude outline under her dress; in the other, Bimbo's crystal ball shows a younger, nude Betty taking a bath.
