Movie Reviews of The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (Disney Gold Classic Collection)
Movie Review: Early Disney Animation at its BEST
Summary: 5 Stars
I gave this movie 5 stars as the BEST "Animated" adaptation of the "Legend of Sleepy Hollow". Its short, but sweet and is a CLASSIC. Unfortunately there isn't a better film adaptation of Irving's masterpiece to compare it to. Perhaps somebody will create one that isn't completely rewritten or doesn't have so much gore. Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow, while visually entertaining, was completely twisted blasphemy. That man needs some serious therapy.
Summary of The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (Disney Gold Classic Collection)
This 1949 Disney feature has never been available on video in its original form until now. The 68-minute film contains two shorts: The Wind in the Willows and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The former is a lively version of Kenneth Grahame's book of animal adventures, including Mr. Toad, a rambunctious sort with a passion for motorcars. Basil Rathbone narrates the story. Sleepy Hollow is the Washington Irving story of a stuffy schoolmaster and his ability to win the love of the fair Katrina from the brutish Brom Van Brunt. Many fans will see a resemblance to Disney's masterpiece created some 40 years later, Beauty and the Beast, in style and story. The end is still scary enough to send youngsters under the table. Bing Crosby supplies the narration, character voices, and songs. The opening number in a library including two stories has been included in this good-looking restoration. The shorts were made in Disney's prime, a year before Cinderella, and the look is wondrous. The exaggeration of Ichabod's skinny frame and his slumping horse is a glorious example. --Doug ThomasIn Wind in the Willows, Mr. Toad he sends his friends into a worried frenzy with his reckless driving, and in the The Legend of Sleepy Hollow Ichabod confronts the headless horseman.
