Right now, this is the only film based on The Tales of Uncle Remus I have because the Disney Studios haven't re-released "The Song of the South" on DVD because of some controversy regarding its content. But I have seen that movie online, and quite frankly, I love both films; I am not one to take sides.
This film is loosely based on Julius Lester's take on the stories, and the film starts with a bored little girl named Janey. Then she met up with Brer Turtle, and he told her the stories of Brer Rabbit's madcap adventures. You know, in "Brer Rabbit Breaks Up the Party," it was kind of cruel that the other critters would not let Brer Rabbit join the party, but he is lucky to have a friend like Brer Turtle. So anyway, I love this film.
