Chariots of Fur

Chariots of Fur is a seven-minute Looney Tunes short released in 1994 by Warner Bros. It features Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner and was directed by Chuck Jones, who introduced the pair in 1949. As in other shorts of the Road Runner series, Wile E. tries to catch his potential prey through use of various devices. This film's soundtrack uses music from the Bedřich Smetana opera The Bartered Bride. It was released in American and Canadian theaters preceding the film, Richie Rich. It was the first time a new short of Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner that had been released theatrically since 1980. This was the final Coyote/Road Runner short to be directed by Jones as well as it being the final Coyote/Road Runner short to be released before Paul Julian's death in the next year. The title is a parody of Chariots of Fire.
