As my old worn out vhs copy will tell you, I've been a long time fan of this glorious double feature. It combines two great stories and presents them in a near perfect form. Mr. Toad's segment is much like it's character; all kinds of crazy. At heart, it's just the adventures of ... read more

Why did they get together good actors for such a stupid Disney movie? I don't know but they seem to do that a lot, and this movie is no different.

it had been years since i had seen this but revisiting it with my kids was a lot of fun. the ichabod story is a classic kids spooky film and the mr. toad story is a strong enough compliment.

The Mr. Toad short is decent but the real draw is the other half.
The Sleepy Hollow segment is one of the funniest, most horrifying, and all around expertly told shorts from animation his... read more -

Fabulously narrated by Bing Crosby (The Legend of Sleepy Hollow) and Basil Rathbone (The Wind in the Willows) The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad tells two classic tales both animated famously. I preferred the Sleepy Hollow short to the Willows but then again I preferred Slee... read more

I watched the first part about Mr. Toad (sort of). I didn't really get it and so I stopped watching. Never got to the Ichabod part...

So awesome! I loved this as a child and still love it now. Mr. Toad is funny and the Ichabod (a.k.a.Sleepy Hollow) story is an awesome watch during Halloween.

Mr. Disney, abetted by his staff, such perfect narrators as Bing Crosby and Basil Rathbone, and a pair of durable literary works, has fashioned a conclave of cartoon creatures, which... have the winso... Full Review
Disney's doubleheader is intermittently witty adaptation of classic literature, narrated by Bing Crosby (who also sings) and Basil Rathbone. Full Review
Two classic stories told in the best Disney style. Full Review
Fables for a less saturated and cynical age, 'The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad' deserves more than it has received. Full Review
The most competently animated of all the package films, and for the Disney animators in their prime, mere competence was a surpassingly high mark. Full Review
Split into two sequences, this feature-length cartoon is one of Disney's finest efforts, with attention paid to every animated detail. Full Review
The Wind in the Willows adaptation has a gag-a-shot scenario, breakneck pace and plays like an extended Donald Duck short. Full Review
A Disney story like many others with plenty of interesting diversions. Full Review
