The Song of the South
*The Song of the South* is a 1946 Disney film that combines live-action and animation to tell a nostalgic story set in the American South during the Reconstruction era. It follows a young boy named Johnny and his relationship with the kindly, storytelling Uncle Remus, who shares folktales featuring anthropomorphic animals. The film aims to celebrate themes of kindness and resilience but has been criticized for portraying racial stereotypes and romanticizing the historical period. Due to these issues, Disney has kept the film out of circulation, and it remains a controversial and rarely shown part of Disney's history.
