A Beautiful Award Winning Animation
11 May 2021
An important film for Disney because it's the first animation ever to use full three-bit Tecnicolor. The film started out in black and white - was almost done - when Disney decided to us Tecnicolor so they remade the animation. This costed the studio a lot of money but the decision paid off in the end. An Academy Award went to the film and was the first animation to ever win the award. It also won an Oscar for the best cartoon short.

The animation starts out a lovely day where the birds sing, the flowers and mushrooms dance, the young healthy male tree plays vines like a harp to impress the beautiful lady tree. An old hollow tree wants her and gets jealous - he starts a forest fire in protest of the young tree couple who wants to marry. The animals of the forest put out the fire and run off the old tree. In the end the young tree couple are happy again.

10/10.
