5.0 out of 5 stars One of the BEST children's movies of all time!, December 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Walt Disney's BRER RABBIT and HIS FRIENDS (Disney's Wonderful World of Reading, No. 13) From the Motion Picture Song of the South (Hardcover)

I'm 32 years old and can remember seeing "Song of the South" many times as a kid. To this day I still don't see what is wrong with the movie, it is VERY entertaining. I'm from the South (Texas to be exact) and I don't see anything racial about the movie. People must realize and remember how long ago the Uncle Remus books were written. Think of them as a History Lesson and not an epitath or slur. There is NOTHING wrong with reviewing and discussing our history as long as we don't repeat it. I sure do miss seeing Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox and Brer Bear, and "Zip-pa-dee-do-da" is still one of my FAVORITE all time children's songs. SO DISNEY, PLEASE RE-RELEASE THIS WONDERFULLY CLASSICAL CHILDREN'S MOVIE. It woulld make a lot of us happy, especially if we could add it to our Disney Video Collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Disney's Song of the South, November 21, 2000

This review is from: Walt Disney's BRER RABBIT and HIS FRIENDS (Disney's Wonderful World of Reading, No. 13) From the Motion Picture Song of the South (Hardcover)

I wish Disney would re-release this video. I am thirty years old and remember watching the film numereous times as a young child. It was one of my favorite childhood movies. It also contained some of my favorite childhood songs. I think it is a disgrace that Disney would remove this movie from circulation due to pressure from a small minority. I think most people would find this movie entertaining and its a shame that the majority must be ignored to appease a small segment of the population. For anyone to say that this movie was racist is ridiculouos.
