This is my all-time favorite bit of animation by Disney. The whole of Fantasia is great, and while this is one of the more complex pieces of animation, most of Fantasia strips down to the core of imagination. Something I’ve always greatly admired! That said, this is also very very romantic, and funny.
Did you know, this is not the original cut of Fantasia? The original version showed a rather dumb looking black centaur, tending to the others. Realise this film was made in 1940. Disney later banned the original material, ashamed of their racist view. Can we really blame them for making it, back then, though? Times were different. It’s not right, but that was the way it was, back then.
Another reason why this is my favorite animation of all time is that fact that it was animated to music. There’s nothing more spontaneous than that.
