Having just watched Lightyear, going back to hand-drawn cel animation was kind of a shock but no less of a technological marvel. The depth of field demonstrated in this film was revolutionary for its time. You can look up videos about how the animators accomplished it and be in awe. Anyway, it's a good movie and a better book. You can find it on Disney+ but this is probably one you should own.

I thought it was time to bring some wholesomeness to this blog.
Just kidding, I'm up to B in my collection.
Bambi is a fawn born in the forest. He frolics with his mother on the meadow and plays with his friends Thumper, a rabbit, and Flower, a skunk. Just past his first winter, he learns what tragedy is when his mother is killed by hunters. Afterwards, he is raised by the Great Prince, a wise but aloof stag, until his antlers come in and he goes forth to seek a mate. It's not all dancing on puffy clouds, though, as hunting season comes around again.
Watching this makes me want to go back and re-read the book. I don't think I have ever noticed that Bambi makes a miraculous recovery after being shot and forced to run from the fire. In the book it's not as abrupt.
