With its luxurious hand-drawn visuals and masterful performances from the Philadelphia Orchestra under the direction of legendary conductor Leopold Stokowski, Fantasia is still considered one of Disney’s greatest accomplishments ever. Prolific Italian animator Bruno Bozzetto’s Allegro Non Troppo , which arrived 36 years later in March 1976, doesn’t quite reach those creative heights, but in his efforts to parody the work of Walt Disney, Bozzetto managed to create a work of art that’s equally jaw-dropping — albeit for a somewhat different reason. (shocking, we know)

To put it simply: Allegro Non Troppo is the raunchiest Disney satire you’ve ever seen (discounting actual, Disney-inspired pornography).

The Details

It’s also an fire animated film on its own merits, and to celebrate the 50th anniversary, film distributor GKIDS is bringing a new 2K restoration to North America, starting with a weekend-long run at the Metrograph in New York City. Allegro Non Troppo opens in black-and-white.

A presenter (Maurizio Micheli) introduces the familiar concept — classic music matched to vivid, colorful animation — and then sets off to assemble his orchestra, which involves shepherding a gaggle of Italian grannies into a van. As the vehicle pulls away, he shouts from the front: “Pisney has already done this?!

Why This Matters

” Meanwhile, the conductor (Néstor Garay) heads to a prison where an animator (Maurizio Nichetti) is freed from his shackles and brought back to the theater.

This is the kind of news that gets gamers talking across social media.
