Fantasia

As an overall review of the Disney hit movie "Fantasia", I would have to say that I really enjoyed the film's choice to have no dialogue. There were times in the movie where the music would perfectly describe a mood or a setting, better than if somebody used dialogue. Subliminal vs. Pastoral nature is an occurrence that happens throughout Fantasia, and Disney movies in general. I would have to say a majority of Disney movies contain pastoral nature because that is the "perfect setting" that everybody dreams about. Although, I found it interesting what Vani said in class today about having the perfect balance if we were to choose the nature that we wanted to live in. I agree with this because in life you can't just have everything be perfect, there needs to be a good balance of all things (even if they have to be subliminal). What I also found interesting was the suddle parts of the movies in which racism was displayed, such as the one part with all of the Asian people doing a dance then bowing in a circle. Fantasia is for sure a Walt Disney Classic, although when dealing with this movie, it is more than meets the eye.
