Peace on Earth is a one-reel 1939 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer cartoon short directed by Hugh Harman, about a post-apocalyptic world populated only by animals.
Synopsis
Two young squirrels ask their grandfather (Voiced by Mel Blanc-uncredited) on Christmas Eve who the "men" are in the lyric "Peace on Earth, good will to men." The grandfather squirrel then tells them a history of the human race, focusing on the never-ending wars men waged. Ultimately the wars do end, with the deaths of the last men on Earth, two soldiers shooting each other, one shoots the other soldier and the injured soldier kills the last, but dies. Afterwards, the surviving animals discover a copy of an implied Bible in the ruins of a church. Inspired by the book's teachings, they decide to rebuild a society dedicated to peace and nonviolence (using the helmets of soldiers to construct houses). The cartoon features an original song written to the tune of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.Actors

Concerned about the terrible state of the environment, dozens of animals gather for a meeting in Jellystone Park, chaired by Yogi Bear. They decide to leave their homes and search for "the perfect place"; i.e., a place free of pollution, deforestation, and other forms of mankind's despoilment. Jellystone handyman Noah Smitty helps them build a flying ship (which looks like Noah's Ark with a propeller on top) for their journey, and they decide to name it after him. Because "Smitty's Houseboat" is too long to paint on the bow, they name it "Noah's Ark." With Noah at the helm, they travel to places around the world searching for "the perfect place." They start by driving down the highway into the ocean, where they soon end up on the back of a sleeping Moby Dick. Huckleberry Hound is sent down to wake him. They then end up in the Sahara Desert which they originally mistake for a beach. The desert sun causes Yogi to hallucinate and believe he's King Tut until Boo Boo and Noah Smitty arrive. Some moments later, So So spots an oasis. As Yogi and crew settle down to make themselves at home, Lambsy spots a "dragon" which turns out to be a construction vehicle developing a new city. Yogi and the crew then take their leave of the area.

Dans une bataille qui semble parodiée les combats de la première guerre mondiale, le vaillant soldat des tranchées, Bosko, est en train de manger lorsque le feu de l’ennemi détruit sa nourriture. Il attrape un morceau de fromage dans une souricière et essaye de le manger. Il soupire alors que d'autres explosions pleuvent sur ses décombres. Il sort une photo de Honey de son short et l'embrasse, mais une balle détruit la photo. Il juge de se venger, mais lorsqu'il tente de sortir de la tranchée, il est repoussé par un tir de barrage. Pour lui remonter le moral, un cheval soldat joue de son harmonica et les deux commencent à danser. Un troisième soldat, un chien, essaie de dormir mais une puce le mord. Malgré ses tentatives pour s'en débarrassé, il arrive pas atteindre la puce. Bosko attrape le casque du chien et le tient en l'air pendant que les balles ennemies lui perforent des trous déchiquetés, il le rend au chien reconnaissant, qui l'utilise contre la puce. Puis Bosko voit une souris qui pilote un pélican, larguer des bombes et utilise le chien comme une fronde pour abattre le pélican. En essayant de capturer un nid de mitraillette, dans un nid d'oiseau, un hippopotame amicale est abattu par une artillerie lourde. Bosko lie un tissu blanc à un poteau en guise de drapeau de trêve pour pouvoir aider l'hippopotame, mais une autre bombe s'y accroche. Le tissus s’approche ensuite et dépose la bombe à côté du canon pour la faire exploser. Il sauve ensuite le soldat blessé en décompressant son nombril et en récupérant l'obus. Le projectile explose quand même rendant Bosko entièrement noir et le poussant à s'exclamer "Mammy!" à la Al Jolson.

Comme Tom et Jerry organisent leurs séquences typiques de combat , le thème du soldat patriotique du titre est confirmé par des choses comme un carton d'œufs étiquetés «Grenades de poule»; Jerrylargue des ampoules d'un avion comme des bombes, et Jerry envoye un télégramme avec le message "Chat aperçu - A couler.". On entend des phrasés Musicaux de chansons de guerre patriotiques diverses partout.

The story is set in 1895 France and takes place predominantly in Paris. However, it begins on a farm in rural Provence. The lovely housecat Mewsette and the accomplished but shy mouser Jaune Tom are in love ("Mewsette"), but the former is frustrated with his plebeian ways (and those of the farm), to the point of calling him a "clumsy country clod". Inspired by the human Jeanette's stories of glamour and sophistication in Paris ("Take My Hand, Paree"), Mewsette runs away by taking a train to the big city ("Roses Red, Violets Blue"), where she encounters the slick con-cat Meowrice (Paul Frees). Taking advantage of the country kitty's naivete, he puts her in the care of the sultry Madame Henretta Reubens-Chatte, who promises to turn Mewsette into a dainty debutante known as "The Belle of all Paris". Unbeknownst to Mewsette, Meowrice is grooming her to be the mail-order bride of a rich American cat in Pittsburgh known as "Mr. Henry Phtt" ("The Money Cat"). Meanwhile, Jaune Tom and his sidekick Robespierre arrive in Paris, searching for Mewsette.
