Walt Disney - Ben And Me (1/2) - 1953



Uploaded by: lpmangas
Video Description:
Part 1 of 2.
It tells the story of Amos, a poor mouse (voiced by -- who else? -- Sterling Holloway), who is truly responsible for all of Benjamin Franklin's innovations in the 1740s, from the bifocals to the printing press, from the lightning rod to the furnace stove. Their relationship is electric, but rewarding (at least for Franklin). Years later, Amos reunites with Franklin to help America frame the Constitution. Sure, this entirely robs one of the most revered founding fathers of his agency, but it's all in good fun and it's a charming, clever little tale.

I'm a descendant of Ben Franklin and an animation major, this film brings back memories, interestingly Franklin is connected to me through by my grandfather who you can hear in the beginning sequence of Paul Bunyan he's the man who takes care of him as a baby.

Mostly style, notice later that Jefferson has the same voice and mannerisms as Capt Hook. Alot of stuff from that time period had a unified look to it, not like today where every feature is made to have its own distinct look.

it's kinda cutting corners, reitherman tends to do that in other films.

Yes but it didn't get really obvious until Aristacats and Robin Hood (one borrows a dance animation cycle from the other). But I kind of like that everything coming out had a similar look because of the core stable of cartoonists. No even Disney shops out it work to lots of different studios. Its not better or worse but just differences in scale of opperation.
well yes but hey ... ( 4 months ago by realar)
well yes but hey had to have some sort of influence in terms of look because Abraham Delacey Guiseppe Casey Thomas O Malley the Alley Cat isn't the same as Baloo the bear although they share the same voice actor.
