The first and in many ways the best. Excellent songs and a great story. The issues are loss of innocence,growing old,jealousy. Message--we are happier if we understand that we cannot stop change.

A masterful film showing us that we are responsible for our humanity. There are several things that work to corrupt us, and we need to be aware of the difficulties in keeping to our goals. The insight that pleasure is not happiness pushes us to consider the implications of the life we are leading. It is easy to be a puppet in this world, and harder to be fully human.

The old vs. the new. The 19th century cowboy against the 20th century astronaut. The cynic vs. the optimist. A film conveying a generational loss of purpose and faith. But things will work out. Message--we all need others to be complete.

Three wonderful stories, each one exploring the trials of being a bear. Figuring out how to get honey, how to get along with new friends, and how to make others feel ok during a flood. These are the important stories of life, at least in a child's imagination.

The variety of ideas and visions gives us opportunities to create our own stories with great music accompanying us. Images that you will not see anywhere else.
