Anecdotes

Spanky is a 1932 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Robert F. McGowan. It was the 113th Our Gang short to be released. The film focuses on Our Gang co-star George "Spanky" McFarland.

Production notes

Spanky is a remake of the 1926 silent entry Uncle Tom's Uncle. Bobby Mallon appeared in both films.

On the syndicated television print, 12 minutes of this short, which are the scenes of Uncle Tom's Cabin, were edited out in 1971 making the film only nine minutes long. This was due to material deemed racially insensitive toward African Americans, as the play starts with a number of the children in blackface, and it includes Stymie getting horsewhipped by the slavemaster. Spanky has been released on VHS and DVD in unedited form.
