Jerry's Cousin

Encyclopedia : J : JE : JER : Jerry's Cousin

Jerry's Cousin is a 1951 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Animated Cartoon that features Tom the cat and Jerry the mouse. Made in 1950, but released in 1951, it was nominated for the 1950 Academy Award for Best Short Cartoon, but lost to Gerald McBoing-Boing, a UPA production.

Synopsis

When Jerry is having trouble with Tom, he sends a letter asking for help to his nearly identical cousin Muscles. Muscles arrives, beats up Tom, and intimidates him so much that Tom grovels at his feet. Numerous cats called in are all scared off, and at the end of the cartoon Muscles gives Jerry one of his suits, so Jerry can pretend to be Muscles.
