Bambi [DVD]

Product Information

Dumbo pulled the heartstrings about mother love but Bambi told the brutal truth, with only the distance of a nature allegory to soften the blow. While living in the forest, he learns about friendship, love and how to protect his near and dear ones. There are good pieces on the restoration and Disney's artwork archive that will interest many viewers.

The deer goes out into the clearing to prove his point by greeting some hunters and is promptly shot dead. I thought this was an absolutely ingenious innovation on the 2005 disc, adding life to the concept of the audio commentary. But in the adventure of a lifetime, the proud parent discovers there is much he can learn from his spirited young son. Again, choosing the right color scheme can give the animators a shorthand to put a lot of information across in very few frames of film.

The story follows young male deer Bambi from his birth and woodland childhood with friends Thumper the rabbit and Flower the skunk, through to his ascendancy into the tall, antlered Prince of the Forest. The film is shown in its entirety but is accompanied with audio featuring actors reading the notes from the story meetings. Fairness, equality and enlightenment are fine, but if we're to draw parallels with human behavior, it's easy to see that goodly number of impressionable females still flock to a few desirable males, whether they be high school jocks or hotshots with a corner office. His most recent projects include the futuristic romance A Boy and a Girl with Natalie Nourigat; Archer Coe and the Thousand Natural Shocks, a loopy crime tale drawn by Dan Christensen; and the horror miniseries Madame Frankenstein, a collaboration with Megan Levens.

Many sequences are told through music, letting the orchestration punctuate action and inspire the proper feelings. A couple of Disney's earlier releases appeared to "repaint" the studio's original animation, but this carefully nuanced job seems to retain minor artwork and camera imperfections that should remain part of the show. The cycles of birth, love, seasons and death in Bambi have an almost mystical feel, helped by the reverential music score and its paeans to the changes in nature. The extras package is rounded off with a 1937 “Silly Symphony” short which pioneered some of the techniques later used in Bambi, and an excerpt from “Tricks of the Trade” illustrating the use of the multi-plane camera. The wonder, music and majesty of one of Walt Disney's greatest triumphs comes alive with a new enhanced digital restoration!Entertainment Magpie Limited t/a Music Magpie is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority FRN 775278.

Europe's busiest forums, with independent news and expert reviews, for TVs, Home Cinema, Hi-Fi, Movies, Gaming, Tech and more.As I've indicated, Bambi is not simply about the growth of a boy into a man, but it has the parallel story of the cycles of nature and its place in the modern world.

Just as he used the things unsaid as a doorway to connect with our minds, he also used the things unseen. It may be a little slow paced by modern standards, but the languidness of this study of character and nature is well served by a respectful and careful restoration.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. There is also a complete and separate bonus menu for any who want to jump straight to a supplement on their own.I remember being impressed by fourth grade girls when they were sometimes right up front with their honest affection. Again, these games are different than what was on the old disc; however, the standard-def bonus DVD that comes with the movie has that 2005 Disneypedia feature that teaches kids about animals and such. You can also break from the playback and explore on your own, moving through the timeline as you see fit. There is no visible artefacting on the transfer, and some grain is retained to give it that more natural look.
