Fantasia (1940)

A series of short animations paired with a soundtrack of famous classical music pieces.

Impressive. The music is flawless, the ideas of the short films are attractive for both the little ones and adults. Fantasia is perfect for directing young tastes towards the classics and is a visually impressive achievement, especially considering the work behind animations of this size in the 1940s.

Directors:  James Algar, Samuel Armstrong, Ford Beebe Jr., Norman Ferguson, David Hand, Jim Handley, T. Hee, Wilfred Jackson, Hamilton Luske, Bill Roberts, Paul Satterfield, Ben Sharpsteen
