American Legends : 3 of 5
5.28.2002

Another Disney DVD, but rented this time (it's not an official feature release). This DVD contains four shorts about American heroes (so to speak), knitted together by James Earl Jones segments. Three of the segments are classics we've all seen on TV - Johnny Appleseed, Paul Bunyan (the most interesting because Paul loses), and Casey Jones. The fourth feature on John Henry is brand new, featuring great music and exciting progressive animation - an effort is made to show pencil lines in a stylistic way. The lighting effects of John Henry hammering away a mountain to build a tunnel are really cool, too! Definitely not a DVD to buy (at least for me), but a really enjoyable set of short subjects.
