Our take on Fantasia

Disney's 1940 experiment sets eight pieces of classical music to dazzling animation, from dancing brooms to a primordial earth, with no dialogue at all. Bold, beautiful and unlike anything before or since, it's pure cinema as visual symphony. If its artistry and ambition enchanted you, seek out experimental and music-driven animation that lets image and sound do all the storytelling.
