(DVD, Disney)
Disney cobbled together previously made featurettes, added some linking material and a new ending, to make this feature length film. The end result is naturally episodic, but the captures the spirit of the original A.A. Milne stories. Residents of the Hundred Acre Wood, a place created by a young boy named Christopher Robin, include Winnie the Pooh, a friendly, if not particularly bright, bear with an insatiable appetite for honey, which gets him into trouble in the first story. Then there is Tigger, a perpetually optimistic, and bouncy, tiger who clashes with the more level headed Rabbit in one of the stories. Other characters include a wise owl, a Kangaroo and her young soon, Piglet and let's not forget Eeyore. There is a memorable dream sequence featuring Heffalumps and Woozles.
