BAMBI (Theatrical Release USA 1942)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.4|5.0 Starsìììì

Bambi—classic animated Disney watch—becomes the perfect fit for the family home video library. The early animation effects and artistic efforts are outstanding and deeply appreciated. The early artwork establishes a softer feel, a gentler touch, and a type of kindness—almost a peaceful quietness lacking in many animated films today. It’s quality all the way, touches the heart, and deserves a permanent place in the family home video library.
