It's taken me a week to get round to writing up the bunch of films I and a group of friends watched on the first successful film night that we've managed.
First up on film night, because me and another friend had never seen it before was Bambi... and I liked it.
Basic storyline, Bambi is born, then grows older and has kids of his own. In between is one of the saddest moments ever seen in a children's film, when Bambi's mother dies. If I look at the film with my Media Studies hat on it's an obvious use of the classical Hollywood narrative, but the symmetry with Bambi having his own kids at the end, despite being obvious was really heart-warming.
Nice kids film with some genuinely brilliant, heart-warming and sad moments is my final verdict.
