DVD Description

The Fox and the Hound marked the last collaboration between Disney's older artists, including three of the "Nine Old Men" (Frank Thomas, Ollie Johnston, and Woolie Reitherman), and the young animators who would make the record-breaking films of the '90s. Based on a book by Daniel P. Mannix, the film tells the story of a bloodhound puppy and a fox kit who begin as friends but are forced to become enemies. Tod and Copper barely establish their friendship before Copper begins his training as hunting dog. Unfortunately, neither character develops much of a personality, which makes it difficult to care about them. The screen comes alive near end of the film, when Tod and Copper have to join forces to fight off an enormous bear. It had been years since Disney produced a sequence with this kind of feral power--and years would pass before they surpassed it. The Fox and the Hound ranks as one of the studio's lesser efforts, but it suggests that better films were soon to follow. (Ages 5 and older) --Charles Solomon


Customer Reviews

Good movie, but watch some of the messages

This movie as the ingredients, conflict/challenge and overcoming the odd friendship between a fox and a hound. I thought they demonstrated it quite well with a well written story. However, my daughter isn't old enough to ask questions, and I'm concerned that I have to explain why people would hunt or kill something so sweet as a fox or other animals. Maybe it's not a big deal, but not sure I want her to see it for awhile.


Sad Movie

I like this movie, but I don't love it. I thought it sounded horrible that Tod and Copper weren't suppose to be friends. It hurts when you want to be somebody's friend but can't. It turned out that Widow Tweed had no right to keep a fox like Tod for a pet and had to make him live in the forest, although Amos Slade still wanted to shoot him. The only happy moment in this movie was when Tod found a relationship with Vixey.

I also want to add that it sounded more than appropriate for Jack Albertson to provide Slade's voice because Slade almost looked like Jack Albertson himself.


AMIGOS PARA SIEMPRE!!

Una clasico de Walt disney, talvez no valorado como debia ser en su tiempo, es una pelicula que nunca debe ser olvidada, y que se sale del esquema tipico de las peliculas Disney (la mayoria se centran en el amor); el tema se centraliza en la AMISTAD VERDADERA, tocando asimismo LA LEALTAD, DEVOCION y FIDELIDAD a la persona apreciada (en este caso la amistad que surge entre el zorro TOD y el sabueso COOPER); podra ser una pelicula de dibujos animados, pero es IDEAL PARA ADULTOS (a mi me hace llorar a moco tendido cada vez que la veo); es admirable ver como el zorro es la representacion del AMIGO INCONDICIONAL Y FIEL HASTA LA MUERTE, en contraposicion al sabueso, quien muchas veces representa una AMISTAD CONDICIONAL Y A VECES CIRCUNSTANCIAL... todo a causa de que sus respectivos amos les obligan a ser ENEMIGOS (Cooper es un cazador de zorros, naturalmente); al final, es maravilloso como la amistad vedadera TRIUNFA SOBRE EL ODIO y como ambos personajes y hasta sus amos comprenden el lazo irrompible que une a ambos protagonistas... ¡¡¡UNA PELICULA PARA TODA LA FAMILIA!!!!
