Disneyland Around the Seasons

About This Movie

So, Disneyland Around the Seasons is this charming little documentary that takes you on a leisurely stroll through the park, showing off some of its latest gems from '66. Walt's narration is warm and inviting, giving you that nostalgic vibe while you explore the new attractions like New Orleans Square and It's a Small World. The pacing is relaxed, almost dreamlike, letting you soak in all the sights and sounds of Disneyland as it transitions through the seasons. You can really feel the pride and joy in what they’ve created, and the practical effects—well, they just add that extra layer of magic, don't they? It's distinct for its focus on the park's evolution rather than just rides, capturing a moment in time beautifully.

This film was originally aired as a television movie and has a somewhat limited release on home video, which adds to its allure for collectors. Finding a good copy can be a challenge since it’s not as widely circulated as other Disney titles. Interest tends to spike around anniversaries or events related to Disneyland, so it's worth keeping an eye on. The blend of nostalgia and the park's historical significance make it a unique piece for any Disney collection.
