True Life Adventures

160'

Volume 1 - Wonders of the WorldWhite WildernessSix years worth of footage shot in Alberta, Canada has been condensed into a 72-minute documentary which offers a unique and touching look at the daily lives of animals such as polar bears, walruses, goldeneyes, wolverines, and, of course, lemmings. One of the most amusing and tender moments perhaps is when a young polar bear slips down a hill and as he slides, the music takes on a comical turn, as if it were a practiced circus act. This documentary is filled with such little moments which make it all the more enjoyable. Water birdsThis two-reel adventure focuses on the interesting and odd behavior of several "water birds" such as the crane, the pelican, the fairy tern, and the snowy egret. Rather than remain in one location, the filmmakers traveled to various islands across the globe. The program concludes with an energetic and amusing montage set to Franz Liszt's "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2." This film appeared on the 2003 DVD release of The Rescuers, but has been given much better treatment here. Beaver ValleyAs the earliest of the True-Life Adventures, Beaver Valley offers a fun and amusing look at life within Beaver Valley. Home of the beavers (naturally), we get glimpses of squirrels, otters, even the coyote and blue heron. The music is much more energetic and engaging here than in the other True-Life Adventures on the disc, and is a definite highlight of this short.Prowlers of the EvergladesDisney filmmakers take their cameras to Florida, not to document the swamps that would become Walt Disney World, but to capture the lives of creatures in the everglades. Focusing primarily on alligators, we also see the behavior of animals such as snakebirds, raccoons, and even otters who like to "play" with the alligators.
