Bambi (Disney Special Platinum Edition) (1942)
They don't even TRY to make 'em like this anymore...
The reviewer who was disappointed that this film was cut was quite wrong...you NEVER saw the mother shot. That's what is so powerful about this movie...they knew what to leave OUT. Very subtle, very much unlike most films today where they feel it necessary to beat you over the head with the obvious. If there's a more powerful scene in movies than the death of Bambi's mother, the simple one-line explanation by his father, and the walk off into the snow with one last look back for his lost innocence...well, I've never seen one. I suspect that the reviewer hadn't seen the film since he was a kid, and remembered what he THOUGHT he saw - if you watch the section with the story conferences, you'll see they discussed showing the mother shot and falling to the ground, but decided it was much more powerful to let that happen offscreen. So powerful, in fact, that many people actually remember seeing it onscreen.
Great movie, beautifully cleaned up, and for those of you who REALLY know this film - the disappearing raccoon doesn't disappear anymore!
