Classic Disney film

This was only the second animated feature film by Walt Disney, following Snow White. I replaced my VHS copy with this new blu-ray, and what a difference in picture and sound quality. It is especially noticeable when looking at the film clips from the movie highlighted in the "classic" special features. Disney Studios pioneered many new animation techniques in the late 1930's that were spotlighted in this film, but especially their technique using wavy glass to film the underwater sequences. The music is phenomenal, winning two Oscars, including "Best Music, Original Song" for "When You Wish Upon a Star," composed by Leigh Harline, with lyrics by Ned Washington. Cliff Edwards who voices Jiminy Cricket, Christian Rub as Geppetto (whose appearance the animators actually based the character on!), and Dickie Jones as Pinocchio were such inspired casting, I can't imagine anyone else in the roles.

Essential title for any animation collection

Verified Purchase:Yes
Replaced my 2005 DVD with this new signature Blu-ray edition. Don't pass it up because you think it's a Disney movie and only for kids. There's less than 1,000 words of dialogue in the entire movie, so the plot is carried mostly through the stunning, impressionistic visuals, and lush music soundtrack composed by Frank Churchill and Edward Plumb (who were recognized with two Academy Award nominations). Picture and sound quality are excellent, and the special features are interesting, but mostly the same as in the earlier editions. Be sure to purchase if you don't already have the 2011 Blu-ray edition.
