Take Your Time

About This Movie

Take Your Time is this quirky little animation from 1972 that captures the whimsical journey of a bear cub who dreams of circus stardom. The pacing is a bit off, but that just adds to its charm, you know? The bear's antics and the silly situations he finds himself in create a light-hearted vibe. The animation style, though not groundbreaking, has a certain hand-drawn warmth that feels nostalgic. Themes of ambition and the consequences of haste play out in a way that feels both innocent and cautionary. And while the director remains unknown, the film has this unique personality that sticks with you, making it an oddity worth discussing among collectors.

Take Your Time has seen various home video releases, but its scarcity in collector circles is notable, as many don’t even know it exists. Original prints have become quite rare, and its offbeat charm has drawn a niche group of enthusiasts. The film’s eccentric storytelling and distinct animation style keep it on the radar of serious collectors who appreciate lesser-known works from the '70s.
