A young fox named Tod is taken in by an old woman after his mother is killed by a hunter. Full of mischief, Young Tod befriends Copper, a hound dog pup. As they grow up, however, their friendship becomes endangered by what they have become; Copper is a hunting dog, and Tod is his prey. —IMDb

A departure from Disney's previous work while retaining the traditional feel, this is a charming film with a clear message of how society determines our behavior.

Early Sunday mornings are made more perfect despite the villain transference before the climax. How Disney deliberately alluded to the Hunter's killing of Todd's mother must have made the NRA happy. On the other hand, Kurt Russell and Pearl Bailey.

A wonderful tearjerker fueled by beautifully water-based animation and a country-esque score that gives it a tone and flavor that sets it apart from other films of its ilk. That the story captures the meaning of friendship in such a terribly depressing way helps advance where it ultimately arrives at. The moral is simple, and quite obvious, but it works out - and it tears me up every time.
