Daffy Duck by 1942 was accustomed to being a second banana as much as he was a headliner.
"Conrad The Sailor" was meant to introduce what WB hoped was a new star in the titular cat (voiced by Pinto Colvig, recycling his Goofy voice), at least in this writer's opinion, but Conrad was never seen again in this iteration. Daffy made him look bad, but then......
I believe Conrad did return, but not as a sailor, just an ordinary house cat.
Rating: B+.

Chuck Jones supposedly based this short on the writings of Eisenstein. Make of that what you will.
Since I'm not familiar with Eisenstein, I wouldn't know.
