Movie Reviews of Fantasia (Special 60th Anniversary Edition)
Movie Review: All-time Favorite
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a movie for everyone. It is fantastic music combined with the animation and imagination of Disney. I personally liked the Classical music. Since the cutting of musical programs in schools, this is good exposure to the classics for children (and the whole family.) The narration between pieces of music is really good. It is informative and entertaining. This movie should not be missed. It is educational, entertaining, and extremely artistic.
Summary of Fantasia (Special 60th Anniversary Edition)
Groundbreaking on several counts, not the least of which was an innovative use of animation and stereophonic sound, this ambitious Disney feature has lost nothing to time since its release in 1940. Classical music was interpreted by Disney animators, resulting in surreal fantasy and playful escapism. Leopold Stokowski and the Philadelphia Orchestra provided the music for eight segments by the composers Tchaikovsky, Moussorgsky, Stravinsky, Beethoven, Ponchielli, Bach, Dukas, and Schubert. Not all the sequences were created equally, but a few are simply glorious, such as "Night on Bald Mountain," "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," and "The Nutcracker Suite." The animation ranges from subtly delicate to fiercely bold. The screen bursts with color and action as creatures transmute and convention is thrust aside. The painstaking detail and saturated hues are unique to this film, unmatched even by more advanced technology. --Rochelle O'GormanAnimation DVD Video
