Beauty
and the Beast
(Disney Special Platinum Edition)
The
film that officially signaled Disney's animation renaissance
(following The Little Mermaid) and the only animated
feature to receive a Best Picture Oscar nomination,
Beauty and the Beast remains the yardstick by which
all other animated films should be measured.
Pinocchio
This
Disney masterpiece from 1940 will hold up forever precisely
because it doesn't restrain or temper the most elemental
emotions and themes germane to its story. Based on the
Collodi tale about a wooden puppet who wants to become
a real boy.
Peter
Pan
(Special Edition)
Peter
Pan has a special place in the realm of classic animated
Disney films: it instills an element of childlike wonder.
The 1953 version of James M. Barrie's story is colorfully
told and keeps on the straight and narrow of the book.
Dumbo
(60th Anniversary Edition)
A
Disney "classic" that actually is a classic,
Dumbo should be part of your video collection whether
or not you have children. The storytelling was never
as lean as in Dumbo, the songs rarely as haunting (or
just plain weird), the characters rarely so well defined.
Lilo
& Stitch
Warm,
funny, and imaginative, Lilo & Stitch is the best
animated feature the Walt Disney Studios have produced
in years.
A
Bug's Life
by Pixar Inc. & Walt Disney
There
was such a magic on the screen in 1995 when the people
at Pixar came up with the first fully computer-animated
film, Toy Story. Their second feature film, A Bug's
Life, may miss the bull's-eye but Pixar's target is
so lofty, it's hard to find the film anything less than
irresistible.
James
and the Giant Peach
Special Edition
Roald
Dahl's modern classic for children becomes a delightful
combination of live action and stop-motion animation
by the team that made The Nightmare Before Christmas:
director Henry Selick and producers Tim Burton (Batman)
and Denise Di Novi.
Walt
Disney Treasures -
Mickey Mouse in Black and White
In
these cartoons released between 1928 and 1935, Walt
Disney created one of the icons of 20th-century culture.
