10/10
Oh Mr Toad!

Very crude and naive by today's standards, but I think that is part of what makes it so charming.

It is skilfully and artfully directed, lit and filmed with an innocence of a time long past and a sweetness that has definitely been lost by some of the latest generations.

The vocal acting is superb with characterful voices from Michael Horden, David Jason, Richard Pearson and Ian Carmichael, all of whom embody the parts they are playing.

It is the perfect film to watch on a cold winters afternoon with young children and a hot chocolate, however the weasels and the wild wood still genuinely terrify me!

Beautifully crafted, painted and designed.
