This week, we dive into Disney’s Fun and Fancy Free (1947), one of the studio’s most unusual animated features. We break down both segments—Bongo and Mickey and the Beanstalk—talking story, animation, music, and where this package film fits in Disney’s post-war era. From singing bears and circus life to giant beanstalks and a very hungry Willie the Giant, we cover what works, what doesn’t, and why this movie feels so different from Disney’s more famous classics.
