5. Bambi (1942)

Director: James Algar and Samuel Armstrong

Writer: Felix Salten and Perce Pearce

Voiced by: Hardie Albright, Stan Alexander, Bobette Audrey, Peter Behn, Thelma Boardman and Janet Chapman

I grew up on Disney and I raised my sons on Disney. There is no other studio that makes such heartwarming wonderful family movies the way Disney does.

Bambi is a classic, and even seventy-seven years after it was first released, Bambi is still one of the best Disney movies to watch with the whole family. This animated movie was adapted from the novel Bambi: A Life in the Woods written by Felix Salten. The film follows an adorable fawn by the name of Bambi (Hardie Albright) as he grows up in the forest with his rabbit friend, Thumper, (Peter Behn) and Skunk friend, Flower (Stan Alexander).

Their lives are idyllic, and there is so much for the friends to learn and explore in their daily lives with lots of playing thrown in.

I never get tired of watching this movie. It is a truly heartwarming and beautiful movie to watch that is perfect for the whole family. Check it out on Disney Plus!
