Taking the best bits from it's vast library of charmingly entertaining nature films, Disney assembles an awfully hard to resist film, even if it's all quite familiar. From North America, to South America, to Africa, and even the Arctic, there are loads of cute animals from Disney's fourteen "True-Life Adventures" short-subject film series, narrated by frequent Disney voice-over artist Winston Hibler (who was also a writer on "Sleeping Beauty," "Cinderella," "Peter Pan," and "Alice in Wonderland"). This documentary includes the infamous lemmings mass suicide segment, which was actually staged and in reality is a complete myth (lemmings do not blindly kill themselves every few years as a result of overpopulation). It's fascinating how such a falsehood can become an accepted truth. It's even more fascinating when you can clearly trace an urban legend back to it's source, but I digress. Overall, if you've enjoyed other Disney nature films, you'll enjoy this one, even if it's a best-of compilations that's all quite familiar.
