Trivia | The final Disney animated feature to simply end with a "The End; Walt Disney Productions" credit, as with all previous Disney animated films after Alice in Wonderland (1951). (All of the credits were at the beginning.) The next Disney animated feature, The Black Cauldron (1985), which was also directed by Richard Rich and Ted Berman, was the first one with closing credits. See more » |
Goofs | Tweed tearfully abandons Tod In the forest to keep him safe from Amos. In reality animals that have spent their whole lives with humans or in resources like zoos etc. would not be able to survive in the wild as they would not had been taught by their parents on how to hunt for food or how to fight or hide from other predators etc. See more » |

Quotes |
Widow Tweed:
We met it seems, such a short time ago. You looked at me, needing me so. Yet from your sadness, our happiness grew. Then I found out, I need you, too. I remember how we used to play. I recall those rainy days, the fires glowed, that kept us warm. And now I find, we're both alone. Goodbye may seem forever, farewell is like the end. But in my heart's a memory, and there you'll always be. See more » |
