THE FOX AND THE HOUND (Theatrical Release USA 1981)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì

The Fox and the Hound—family friendly storyline backed with pleasing animation—shows off the unique voicing of Mickey Rooney, Kurt Russell, Pat Buttram, and Jack Albertson. It’s an innocent exposure to the interrelationships of foxes and hounds. Good, solid story.
