Review of Fantasia

Fantasia (1940)
Old School Disney
21 November 2001
From the golden age of Disney films comes this fantastic animated film with some breathtaking visuals. Unusual Disney film to say the least because its a little more darker than the animations that Disney is known for. Not as sappy or overly silly with exception of couple of episodes as in some Disney animated features. Also, it totally dispenses with plot and lets the imagination of the images run wild with style. Excellent mixture of images and music puts it above the average Disney cartoon as one of the best. Presents some extraordinary technicolors effects with fantastic results. The best episodes in Fantasia(1940) are "THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE" & "NIGHT ON BALD MOUNTAIN". "NIGHT ON BALD MOUNTAIN" segment is possibly the scariest Cartoon that Disney put on film. Fantasia(1940) failed during its time due to its dark imagery and did not gain respect until years later.
