Tom and Jerry is a series of animated theatrical shorts created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer(MGM) that centered on a never-ending rivalry between a house cat (Tom) and a mouse (Jerry) whose chases and battles often involved comic violence.
Background
Tom is a common house cat, it has a strong desire—always want to seize mice, but it is difficult to catch mice living in a room with Jerry. It is constantly trying to dispel the hate tenants, but always fails. Even if Tom occasionally caught Jerry, he usually did not know how he should deal with the mouse!
Background
At the end of each cartoon, Jerry is often a winner, and Tom is a tragic failure. However, there may be the following result: very few, Tom will win.
In the cartoon, unlike Jerry, Tom has a very strong conscience, if he thought Jerry was badly injured, dying or dead, he would be confound at. Jerry sometimes use it to gain an advantage.

Once inside the theatre, it was difficult to get a seat because you had to climb over other seats. Some audience threw around paper planes to show their happiness.
