About this product

Product Information

Walt Disney took a big chance with this ambitious anthology of animated fantasies. First, he set them to lengthy classical music pieces, and then he boldly experimented with different forms of animation, sometimes jettisoning any sort of narrative altogether. The result is a sometimes mesmerizing, sometimes hilarious, sometimes frightening, but always beautiful moviegoing experience. A box-office failure when first released, it's now considered a timeless treasure. Highlights include: Mickey Mouse in 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice', the leaping hippos and alligators in 'Dance of the Hours', the rise and fall of the dinosaurs set to Stravinsky's 'Rite of Spring', the dancing mushrooms of Tchaikovsky's 'Nutcracker Suite', and Mussorgsky's 'Night on Bald Mountain', with its fearsome winged demon raging at the heavens.

One of Walt Disney's ambitions for the project was to rerelease the film periodically over the years with new sequences. Though the film was regularly rereleased, it wasn't until 1999 that his intention was finally realized with the premiere of FANTASIA 2000, a lavish follow-up that included a digitally restored Sorcerer's Apprentice and a host of new material. The original FANTASIA, however, remains a one-of-a-kind auditory and visual experience that is still, in many ways, far ahead of its time.

Interesting film with a variety of scenes. A nice introduction to classical music for kids.
I bought this for my three year old daughter to watch. I remember this film from when I was a kid. She loved the film, apart from a couple of scenes that were a bit dramatic eg. Night on cold mountain and some of the scenes with the dinosaurs. I haven’t used any of the special features yet.

Wonderful film
A wonderful way to revisit the film which I saw over 50 yrs ago as a schoolboy.Photography has come up very well and sound is just a little prone top distortion but thats in the original anyway.
