A magical, enchanting story

Advantages: Classic tale which has a good message.
Disadvantages: Like several other movies, not as good as the first one.

This tale starts off like many others with setting the scene, yet in a very confusing way. It is not clear of the time line as it does not directly follow on from the first movie. Despite the opening flaw it does offer some entertainment and with an original cast from the first movie, the music, along with many other Disney classics, is wonderful and charming and will capture the imagination of many generations. The basic plot sees to be that during ...
...the Christmas before; thus launching into a long tale in which the characters plan, sing, destroy, and save Christmas! The villain of the piece is perhaps more terrible than the previous, jealous character of Gaston. He comes in the form of Forte. Forte was the musician in the castle and when the spell was placed on the castle, he was turned into a pipe organ. He now feels useful because his gloomy music seems to be the only thing that makes the ...

Snow White - 70 years and still as good as ever

Advantages: The dwarves, the animals, the imagery and the sense of fun
Disadvantages: A few old fashioned features - particularly some of the songs/singing voices!

...More than seventy years later, Snow White is still available as a testament to how wrong general opinion can be. The Story Like many of the brilliant films that followed it, Snow White was based on a fairy tale – in this case the German fairy tale Schneewittchen, as collected by Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm. It follows the fortunes of beautiful young princess Snow White, who is driven from her home by the murderous intentions of her jealous step mother ...
...I should first say that Snow White is not entirely what you might expect of a Disney heroine. As someone who grew up with the films of the so-called ‘Disney Renaissance’, and with characters such as Jasmine, Esmeralda and Belle, I found her to be a lot less self reliant and realistic than my favourite ‘princesses’ and so found a lot more interest in the rest of the cast. It may well be a generational difference, but I always thought that Snow White, ...

...a film. I knew that Dumbo is a classic of Walt Disney and that it is a film about an elephant, but this was all. I haven’t seen the film until yesterday afternoon. My 28 months old son started to watch it sitting in his highchair while I was sitting next to him feeding the younger one. To be honest I was curious as well. The film starts with a rainy evening plot, just the same as we had yesterday afternoon. Some animals of the circus got their babies ...
...punished for her behaviour. Little Dumbo and her mother get separated. Dumbo finds a new friend: Timothy Mouse. He helps little Dumbo to survive these bitter days. One evening Timothy Mouse tells Dumbo that he can visit his mother. There is a very beautiful music in the background and it is really touching as they meet again. Will they ever be together again? Can Dumbo become famous? I won’t tell you because it is such a lovely film you have to watch. ...
