Synopsis
One of the most popular Disney films ever, "The Jungle Book" is a song-filled celebration of friendship, fun and adventure set in a lush and colorful world. Inspired by Rudyard Kipling's "Mowgli" stories, Disney's 19th animated masterpiece was the last animated feature that had Walt Disney's personal touch.The jubilant adventure begins when Mowgli, a little boy raised by wolves, is urged by his friend Bagheera, a wise old panther, to seek safety in the man-village. Feeling very much at home in the jungle, Mowgli resists and runs off. Much to Bagherra's dismay, Mowgli meets a new friend with a happy-go-lucky- philosophy of life- Baloo the bear, a lovable "jungle bum." Together, the three buddies find the journey back to civilization anything but civilized. They encounter a crazy orangutan, the hypnotic and sly snake Kaa, and the menacing Shere Khan!
Disney's enduring classic swings with jazzy, toe-tapping music, including the Academy Award - nominated "The Bare Necessities" and the freewheeling "I Wan'na Be Like You"!
