Delightful
Disney's Robin Hood (1973)Children are guaranteed to love this movie. I got it as a the film book of this movie as a birthday present when I was six years old, and it started me on a passion for all things Robin Hood, which led to a lifelong and consuming interest and history!All this from an animated kids movie, starring animals as all the characters. This has got everything for the kids.Adventure, romance, sadness turning to joy, and the triumph of good over evil.Robin Hood (Brian Bedford) is a fox with a delightful 007 accent, as is his beloved Maid Marion (Monica Evans) with her nanny being a big fat, jolly hen. Little John (Phil Harris) is a bear; Prince John is lion with a very sinister snake as his aide de camp - Sir Hiss. The Sheriff of Nottingham is a very nasty wolf, which robs the mice, rabbits, pigs etc that make up the poor, oppressed people of England. Friar Tuck is a bear; Allan-A-Dale is rooster with a Deep South accent.Most importantly there is never a dull moment, with lots of action and songs etc. This should be the first video/DVD for every child.
