Zippety-Doo-Dah

A Special Treat

Here's something some of you have never seen, and nobody since 1977 when Song of the South was last released by Walt Disney. (I am fortunate to own a VHS copy, made in Europe where it is, or at least was, in distribution).

Wo, are we movin' too slow?
Have you seen us,
Uncle Remus . . .
We look pretty sharp in these clothes (yes, we do)
Unless we get sprayed with a hose
It ain't bad in the day
If they squirt it your way
'Cept in the winter, when it's froze
An' it's hard if it hits
On yer nose
On yer nose

Just keep yer nose
To the grindstone, they say
Will that redeem us,
Uncle Remus . . .
I can't wait till my Fro is full-grown
I'll just throw 'way my Doo-Rag at home
I'll take a drive to BEVERLY HILLS
Just before dawn
An' knock the little jockeys
Off the rich people's lawn
An' before they get up
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
Before they get up
I'll be knocking the jockeys off the lawn
Down in the dew

Tim beat me to it.
Man, I loved that movie as a kid. Saw it again on bit torrent a year or so ago.
It used to be aired on The Wonderful World of Disney.
Yep, something wonderful was sacrificed on the altar of PCness.

I was lucky, back in the early '70s, to see SOTS in a restored movie theater. The crowd was mixed black and white and, despite the tensions at the time - NOBODY CARED. Not a dry eye in the house at the ending...

Last time I saw this movie my ex and I were in Toronto, circa 1983. Fantastic flick. Absolutely fantastic. But no longer PC so we may never see it again.

It was among my mother's favorites.

Yesterday I purchased an uncut/unedited DVD of SOTS at MayanCastleDvd.net

$16.00 including shipping via USPS.

I did a Bing search and found several editions available including a two disc set that had additional classics. Ididn't buy any of those because it required registration and payment through Google and I refuse to use them in any capacity.

DON, i had my order ready to go but something about giving my credit card to someone named "Mayan ....," selling pirated videos, made me back out. If they accepted Pay Pal ... Please let me know if everything works out and I'll go back. :))
