This movie came in a two-pack with Fantasia, so now we own it. I'd never seen it before, but it's more of the same. Animated classical pieces, a bit more modern and a bit more enhanced. They do include the Sorceror's Apprentice here as well, but it's the exact same version. I guess this is only irritating if you watch both Fantasia movies back to back.
It's a nice tribute to the "revolutionary" idea of Leopold Stokowski and Walt Disney back in 1940, but I'm glad they're not making more of these. It's a nice way to get kids to listen to classical music, though. Ellie had a blast with these.
