tumblr is a MORNING app. it should be enjoyed while eating breakfast, drinking your cup of tea or coffee, letting your meds kick in... sometimes I go on here at night but in my heart I know it’s wrong.

Holding hands while crossing roads is amazing because then I can look around bindass and not die yk?

Puja arrangements make me so happy because THE TEXTURE, THE COLOUR CONTRAST, THE OVERLY SPECIFIC SYMBOLISM, THE SLIGHTLY OBSESSIVE ALIGNMENT JUST WOW.

I LOVE BAMBI!!! (I love Bambi 2 too, but this isn't about that). Out of all of Disney's Golden era films I've seen Bambi the most. I've been looking forward to this one in the movie marathon.
Story: I don't think enough people appreciate or give Bambi credit because they think it's only a movie about cute animals frolicking in a forest. Yes it has these things, but that's barely scratching the surface. This is very much a coming of age story about a young deer and how there is always change with the forest and its inhabitants. It's not a fairy tale or a straight dramatic story where good beats evil. It's the circle of life, growing up, and change of the seasons. With change comes both good and bad. And we see the range of good and bad through Bambi's point of view from his innocent early life to taking his role as protector of the forest.
Characters: I can't stress enough how good it is to have children play children in animated roles because it makes the interactions that much more believable. Bambi is the only one who really gets fleshed out as we see him literally from the day he's born until he's the "Great Prince of the Forest". There are plenty of forest animals but the most notable being Thumper, Flower and Faline. Thumper taking role of mischievous best friend, Flower as a secondary shy friend, and Faline as love interest. Honorable mention to Friend Owl because he is a mood for cranky mornings.
Animation/Art: Like Fantasia being a flex in animation in general Bambi is a flex specifically for animals. This is the movie where Disney shows how hard they studied animal forms. If you compare this to previous movies you see the animals have flesh, muscle, and bone. Bambi has one of my favorite art styles. Every shot has painterly qualities and the way colors change based on mood sometimes more graphic really enhances what you're watching. Each film has a style but this one has one of the most visually distinct in my opinion.
Songs: While not having any bangers (though Little April Shower is my personal banger) the music is constant. Again like Fantasia where the music or lack of goes hand in hand with the imagery. The little things are accentuated with the music and perfectly pair with movements

Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
Lao Tzu
Frederick Judd Waugh.
“There is no mode of action, no form of emotion, that we do not share with the lower animals. It is only by language that we rise above them, or above each other — by language, which is the parent, and not the child, of thought.”
— Oscar Wilde, The Critic as Artist
इन दिनों, दिल मेरा, मुझसे है कह रहा
तू ख्व़ाब सजा, तू जी ले ज़रा
है तुझे भी इजाज़त, कर ले तू भी मुहब्बत
बेरंग सी है बड़ी ज़िन्दगी कुछ रंग तो भरूँ
मैं अपनी तनहाई के वास्ते अब कुछ तो करूँ
जब मिले थोड़ी फुर्सत, मुझसे कर ले मुहब्बत
है तुझे भी इजाज़त, कर ले तू भी मुहब्बत
उसको छुपाकर मैं सबसे कभी ले चलूँ कहीं दूर
आँखों के प्यालों से पीता रहूँ उसके चेहरे का नूर
इस ज़माने से छुपकर, पूरी कर लूँ मैं हसरत
है तुझे भी इजाज़त, कर ले तू भी मुहब्बत
