Rating:  - OK for adults, but may not be meant for a 90's 2 year old!
I bought this for my two year old nephew who loves Mickey Mouse & his friends (none of whom do you see much of in this video.) This video may be great for adults who are looking for a blast from the past, but I ended up not giving it to my nephew and regretted buying it at all.
Rating:  - Trippy "Melody Time" came 15 years too early!
Similar to "Fantasia" in concept, this film uses popular music from the 50's to underscore it's fabulous animation. And like "Fantasia," I'm sure this film was FAR more popular in the trippy '60's than when it was originally issued. This film may be hard for some to sit through entirely, but each of the individual segments feature animation and design at the peak of the Disney Animation Department's powers. One "PC" problem: Disney has digitally removed Pecos Bill's cigarette throughout that particular segment--and yet, in the very next segment, there's an animated parrot smoking a cigar and swimming around in a martini (through the entire segment!!). Zowie! What's next? Removing the scene in "Bambi" where his mother gets shot??
