"Fun and Fancy Free" (first released on September 27, 1947) is a feature film produced by Walt Disney and released by RKO Radio Pictures. It was one of the "package films" (feature-length compilations of shorter segments) that the studio produced in the 1940s. It is the ninth animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, and it's the fourth package film by Disney.
This film features two segments:
Bongo: The story of a circus bear cub, who runs away from the circus to the wild and the adventures there that follow. This was based on an original story by Sinclair Lewis.
Mickey and the Beanstalk: An adaptation of Jack and the Beanstalk with Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy as peasants who discover temperamental Willie the Giant's castle in the sky through the use of some magic beans.- Information from wikipedia.org
I thought it was nice to hear a lady narrate a story in a movie for once. Dinah Shore sang the story of "Bongo". It was a cute story, but the slapping was a little obnoxious. LOL
I love the dummies at the beginning of "Mickey and the Beanstalk". They have such a sarcastic sense of humor which adds so much to the Disney magic. I don't have much to say about this movie, but I remember watching it on my way to Disney World. So it holds a special place in my heart!
