Reviewer: Wendy W3 - - November 7, Subject: The music is great I loved the music in this as a child, and it was also on a record of Disney music. Yes, we went to see this in the theater in the 80's when I was about in the third or fith grade, so probably around '80? Looked forward to it, too.
The Hattie McDaniel song has stuck with me throughout my years. Reviewer: chukbekr - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - October 30, Subject: Post slavery these people are not slaves. Post slavery, book written Slavery ended Many freedmen chose to work on plantations , that is the one's that survived reconstruction. This is a parable, a moral story for children and adults.
Reviewer: sethhalp52 aol. And why did he have to send little Johnny away to Grandma's? Was he expecting a mob to show up at his townhouse? Anyway, it's an acceptable film for children on condition that the context is explained to them. Of course the animation is charming. Reviewer: Tridentine - favorite favorite favorite favorite - September 21, Subject: Brings back memories My mother took me to see this movie in at least 2 times.
At the beginning I thought of my mother and I sitting the theater watching the movie. Such a good memory and an enjoyable movie. Times were much different in when the author Joel Chandler Harris wrote the book the Tales of Uncle Remus where he represented the struggles in the Southern U. The way the words were pronounced in the movie were just as they were written in the book. Reviewer: The random entertainment - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - August 26, Subject: Seeing the differences Now I know we were all upset heck even me, but even if we don't see anything wrong with the movie other people do One thing that's on my mind is giving the animated trio a second chance.
Reviewer: Jcmojo - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - July 29, Subject: John Cobb In my estimation this is probably the best Disney film of all time very heartwarming I cried and I hadn't seen this since I was a small child I'm 55 years old and I think I saw it when I was about 8 years old.
It brought back a lot of childhood memories are singing that song and I walked along the road of small child in a small town in West Virginia. Uncle Remus is it true caring loving man I can't see anything racist about this movie whatsoever maybe I'm just stupid yeah I do see that the the black people in this movie were portrayed as slaves.
And I don't condone that in any way whatsoever and it is a smear on our past here in America however it's been over for over a hundred and fifty years. They might could have left the tar baby scene out and put something else in but the movie was made in a different era way before the Civil Rights Movement. However the movie to me is wonderful!
I don't care what the racists who hate this movie say. It's the BEST movie ever to be made. Whenever I watch the movie, it just brings a big smile to my face. I love the Brer Characters even more!
Way before slavery. He gathered what he had heard and wanted to preserve the stories. Walt Disney wasn't trying to be racist. Nor did he ever claim the movie is realistic and it actually happened. It's ignorant white people who want this movie removed not knowing what it means to black people. I for one would LOVE to see this released so Disney can finally prove that it's not as bad as people say it is.

Reviewer: RobsAly - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - June 9, Subject: At Last This was a childhood favourite and beings back many memories. I know its not PC anymore because of the stereotyping.
But I just loved rhe stories and songs and uncle Remus. Reviewer: Journeyman58 - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - May 23, Subject: Song of the south. What a sweet story for the time it was made. For those that unfairly call it racist who was the hero and main character?
Uncle Remus showed everyone how to be a kind and thoughtful person. This deserves to be looked at for what it is, the beginning of blacks accepted into the mainstream at that point in time. Tears were rolling down my face when Uncle Remus got the Dad. A well written sweet story everyone can feel good about. Reviewer: lucpucbuc - favorite favorite - May 20, Subject: First time watching, can definitely see why it's problematic For context, I am white, in my 20s, European and not from an English-speaking country.
In the U. According to The Guardian , Disney boss Bob Iger said in that the film, "wouldn't necessarily sit right or feel right to a number of people today," and that "it wouldn't be in the best interest of our shareholders to bring it back, even though there would be some financial gain.
In the movie, a young boy named Johnny played by Bobby Driscoll gets told stories that teach him a number of lessons from former slave Uncle Remus James Baskett. Lastly, please note that by the end of the movie you will learn that the "star" turns out to be the "nicest and wisest" of them all. Shame on Disney!

This is the clearest in-home version I've seen - what a treat for my Mom age 85 and I to watch on my 61st birthday! Since the coronavirus shut-in has limited our entertainment, reviewing this long-ago favorite from Mom's youth and mine was heartwarming.
However, I'm sad if the story offends anyone. It does present a rosy picture of the relationship between plantation owners and slaves in the old south. I will say that the star of the show to me is Uncle Remus, the wise slave who befriends and helps the white grandson of the plantation owner.
Uncle Remus's delightful and insightful stories about mythical Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox entertain the sad boy and help him to cope with the neighborhood bullies and with the estrangement of his parents. As usual in that era, there's a very happy ending. Reviewer: Quietman - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - June 27, Subject: Additional Format Thanks so much for posting this video.
