There are a lot less musical numbers in the older Disney cartoons than I remember. Allegedly Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs invented the idea of having the songs in a musical (film?) be plot relevant, and then other than The Jungle Book, they didn't really do full musicals until The Little Mermaid. Although apparently Alice In Wonderland has the most original music in it - it's just that most of the songs are only used for a line, so you wouldn't notice.

Disney do scary forests generally - Snow White and Alice In Wonderland spring to mind.
Love these drawings.
ReplyDeleteThanky. I'm slightly disturbed by the happy one.
