The Bear That Couldn't Sleep is a 1939 animated short film, directed by Rudolf Ising for MGM as part of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer' Barney Bear series. Released with the movie 6,000 Enemies by MGM on June 10, 1939, the short is notable for featuring the first appearance of Barney Bear. Ising created the character Barney Bear in the late 1930s for MGM at this time, basing the sleepy-eyed character partially on himself.

Synopsis

As autumn draws to a close, and the first gentle blanket of snow covers the great brown forest. Barney Bear happily prepares for his nice long winter's hibernation, but water leaks, a loose shutter, a noisy fire, a teakettle left on, and some stray embers all get in the way and keep him up until spring.

Rudolf Ising is thinking of ideas for a new character, until he draws a blackfaced person, who comes to life. The new character introduces himself as Bosko, and he speaks, sings, dances and plays the piano before Ising sucks him into his ink pen and pours him back into the inkwell. Bosko pops out of the bottle and promises to return.

Bosko part dans la jungle pour chasser les animaux. Il est d'abord à la poursuite d'un tigre dont il se débarrasse avec malice puis rencontre un bébé chimpanzé mais ce dernier ne veut pas jouer et lui crache dessus. Bosko lui frappe sur les fesses et son père, un gorille, apparaît. Dès lors, Bosko parvient à détourner l'attention du père en lui offrant un chewing-gum. Ils deviennent alors amis et Bosko continue son périple en faisant de la musique avec les autres animaux de la jungle. Un véritable concert de musique finit l'aventure.
