Song of England

Song of England (also known as Wind in the Willows in United Kingdom and other countries outside the United States) is a 1946 live-action/animated comedy-drama film produced by Michael Shires and Walt Disney and released by RKO Radio Pictures, loosely based on the novel The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame. The film stars child actor Bobby Discoll as Alastair Grahame, with voices of Mel Blanc (as the narrator), Eric Blore, Colin Campbell, Campbell Grant and Claude Allister. The film depicts a child named Alastair Grahame, who moves with his father, banker Kenneth Grahame, to a new home in a riverbank, where he meets and befriends with four animals, Moley, Ratty, Mr. Toad and Mr. MacBadger, who live in a place poublated by animals who act as humans.

While the film was critically panned on its initial release, the movie proved to be ahead of its time and has since been regarded as one of Shires' greatest animated classics.
