Customer Reviews of The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (Disney Gold Classic Collection)
Loved Ichabod and Mr. Toad is not bad either Like a lot of Baby Boomers growing up in the 60's and 70's I remember waiting with anticipation for this version of the Sleepy Hollow story to show up on TV around Halloween. Watching now as a middle aged adult I still think this is a wonderful animated movie and especially appropriate for the Halloween season. The animation is wonderful and Brom Bones and his sidekick had to be inspiration for Gaston any his little crony when Disney did Beauty and the Beast forty years later. Ichabod's rather ambiguous fate adds a little lingering horror to the movie though Bing Crosby's carefree narration is the opposite of scary. <
> Somehow I had never seen Mr. Toad until now though I have enjoyed his ride at Disneyland many times. This is a cute, well done movie but to me it is not the treasure the Ichabod portion is. <

Wonderful, warm trip down memory lane!
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a charming and playful Halloween story that adults and kids will love. Bing Crosby's smooth tones are the perfect accompaniment for this old-fashionied cartoon - perfect for snuggling under the covers on a dark, rainy night! I absolutely loved it as a 7-year-old kid and I am thrilled to share it with my little boy.
The eleventh animated Disney masterpiece is a winner
I recently reviewed "Fun and Fancy Free," released just two years before this film. Walt Disney tried the same thing in that film that he did in this film; he combined two shorts into one release. Unfortunately, the technique did not work well in "Fun and Fancy Free." The technique worked very well in this feature.

>The first story is that of Mr. Toad, which is a story adapted from "The Wind in the Willows." J. Thaddeus Toad is quite a fellow. Mr. Toad likes to follow the whim of the moment, and his friends have a hard time trying to keep him out of trouble. Mr. Toad is in a pickle this time. The police found Mr. Toad in a stolen car and shortly he is in prison. Weasels take over Toad Hall and Mr. Toad can do nothing about it; or can he? Soon Mr. Toad and his friends are on the run from the law, but they are trying to recover the deed to Toad Hall and clear the name of Mr. Toad in a funny and exciting adventure.

>The second story is even better than the first. Ichabod is Ichabod Crane from the story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." Narrated by Bing Crosby, this story is funny and nicely plotted. The story of Sleepy Hollow is nicely animated and interpreted. If you saw the wonderful version with Johnny Depp, try this one for a fun comparison.

>Disney had an instant classic with this 1949 release. The two stories in this release work well, and are among some of the best animation that Disney has ever done. These stories are Halloween favorites and are worth watching again and again. This feature should entertain all but the youngest family members, who may be frightened by some images in the story of Ichabod. This DVD should be in every family's movie library.
