Movie Reviews of The Easter Bunny Is Comin' to TownMovie Review: Superb Rankin And Bass Easter Classic To Be Enjoyed By The Whole Family
My admiration for the talented team of Arthur Rankin Jr and Jules Bass and their wonderful animagic productions knows no bounds and their creations in countless holiday specials are still in my belief unsurpassed for sheer charm and creativity. Perhaps most famous for their legendary Christmas specials such as "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", this talented duo also created some memorable specials for the Easter season producing two classics in the charming animagic process that took different slants on dealing with the celebration of Easter. The highly entertaining and beautifully constructed "Here Comes Peter Cottontail", was released in 1971 and has endeared itself to television audiences ever since and then in 1977 came the superb "The Easter Bunny is Comin' to Town", which in its turn became an Easter staple on television. Narrated by none other than acting legend Fred Astaire this special in a most original way goes about explaining the origins of so many of our regular Easter traditions such as why we have Easter Egg hunts, why eggs are painted, the origin of jelly beans etc. All wrapped up in superb animagic animation courtesy of the Rankin and Bass team and boasting catchy seasonal songs that will have you singing along, "The Easter Bunny Is Comin' To Town", makes memorable viewing for all those like myself who love all the traditions of Easter and always enjoy the nostalgia that specials such as this produce for those of us lucky enough to have seen them each year on television at Easter time.
