We take a deep dive into the films of animator and director Don Bluth, with special focus on The Land Before Time, An American Tail, All Dogs Go to Heaven, and Anastasia.
For those of us who grew up watching these movies, they are remembered for their dark subject matter and themes antithetical to Disney. Now that we’re grown ups, we see stories that express the human condition from the perspective of a regular person, with protagonists who seek only to live normal lives as they battle against the forces that rule life in a world that is anything but perfect.
