The Jungle Book
»rank: 116
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Disney's 1967 animated feature The Jungle Book seems even more entertaining now than it did upon first release, with a hall-of-fame vocal performance by Phil Harris as Baloo, the genial bear friend of feral child Mowgli. Loosely based on Rudyard Kipling's original, the film goes its own way as Disney animation will, but the strong characters and smart casting (George Sanders as the villainous tiger, Shere Khan) make it one of the studio's stronger feature-length cartoons. Songs include 'The Bare Necessities' and 'Trust in Me'. --Tom Keogh ...

Dumbo
»rank: 4341
Chroniques et points de vue:From :A Disney 'classic' that actually is a classic, Dumbo should be part of your video collection whether or not you have children. The storytelling was never as lean as in Dumbo, the songs rarely as haunting (or just plain weird), the characters rarely so well defined. The film pits the 'cold, cruel, heartless' world that can't accept abnormality against a plucky, and mute, hero. Jumbo Jr. (Dumbo is a mean-spirited nickname) is ostracized from the circus pack shortly after his delivery by the stork because of his ...

Bambi (Disney Special Platinum Edition)
»rank: 1592
Chroniques et points de vue:From essential video:lt always comes up when people are comparing their most traumatic movie experiences: 'the death of Bambi's mother,' a recollection that can bring a shudder to even the most jaded filmgoer. That primal separation (which is no less stunning for happening off-screen) is the centerpiece of Bambi, Walt Disney's 1942 animated classic, but it is by no means the only bold stroke in the film. ln its swift but somehow leisurely 69 minutes, Bambi covers a year in the life of a young deer. But ...

Alice In Wonderland
»rank: 5005
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:lmaginatively rendered but slightly chilly, this 1951 Disney adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic is also appropriately surreal. Alice (voiced by Kathryn Beaumont) has all the anticipated experiences: shrinking and growing, meeting the White Rabbit, having tea with the Mad Hatter, and so on. The characterisation is very strong, illustrating how hard the Disney team worked to bring screen personality to Carroll's eccentric creations. For a Disney film, however, it seems more the self-satisfied sum of its inventiveness than a truly engaging experience. --Tom Keogh
