Jake and Joe teasing Ginny


Ginny Favers is the tritagonist of the film Song of the South.

Background[]

Ginny [1] is a poor girl who lives with her mean brothers, Jake and Joe, and their mother. She is friends with Johnny and has a pet puppy named Teenchy whom she gives to Johnny after her brothers threaten to drown it. She is usually barefoot and wears a dress with blue collar and sleeves apart from when she is preparing to go to Johnny's birthday party where she wears a white dress fashioned from her mother's wedding dress.

Role in the film[]

Ginny is first seen in her family's home where she notices her brothers Joe and Jake rudely harassing her pet dog Teenchy, telling them to leave him alone and stop harassing her dog. Soon as Jake and Joe look at Johnny wearing his suit, the two make fun of him just as he sadly stumbles upon a pond where Ginny approaches him. Johnny asks Ginny if he can hold her puppy, which she allows him to do so if he is nice to him unlike her brothers Joe and Jake who show a rude personality to Teenchy just as Johnny happily reacts to Teenchy. As Ginny sees the collar that Johnny took off in frustration from his suit, the latter allows her to wear it which she feels happy for Johnny's empathy. The two then chase Teenchy into a rowboat and as the two go on a boat ride as Johnny and Ginny introduce themselves to each other as Johnny sings a reprise of "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" to Ginny while rowing across the pond.

Ginny then appears again after Johnny and Uncle Remus teach Joe and Jake a lesson, giving Johnny advice that if Joe and Jake make trouble, he should tell Ginny's mother to take care of them.

Later, Johnny invites Ginny for his party while her mother is getting her dress ready for the party and as Johnny approaches her, he takes Ginny to his party while a Joe and Jake follow the two having a conversation on their way to the party and noticing Joe and Jake behind them, Johnny tells Ginny to not pay attention to her just as Jake pushes onto a puddle of mud, making her dress dirty just as Johnny confronts the two for bullying her while Uncle Remus saves Johnny from being attacked, teaching Joe and Jake a lesson and telling them that they should get along and not do the same actions they are doing to Ginny and Johnny. Later, Johnny approaches Ginny who is crying after her dress was dirty after Jake pushed him into the mud to which to cheer her up, Johnny tells a story of Br'er Rabbit and as the plan cheer her up fails, Uncle Remus leads Ginny to find Aunt Tempy to clean her up while Johnny tells Uncle Remus to take care of the trouble he is facing, which reminds him of a story about Br'er Rabbit and the Laughing Place just as he tells the story to the two. After Uncle Remus tells the story of Br'er Rabbit and the Laughing Place, Ginny and Johnny both laugh together that they like the story just as Johnny takes Ginny to find the laughing place like they saw in the story. However, Sally approaches her son telling him that the party is over and as Ginny tells her about Uncle Remus, Sally approaches Uncle Remus thinking that he should avoid being around him.

After Uncle Remus tells the story of Br'er Rabbit and the Laughing Place, Johnny and Ginny stroll around the woods to look for the "Laughing Place" only to find Ginny's house instead just as Ginny's parents are happy to see their daughter back while Johnny tells Uncle Remus that he found it, only to find out that he is not there. Later at the end of the film, Ginny, Johnny, and Toby happily stroll around the countryside with many animated characters singing a reprise of "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" altogether just as they happily stroll into the sunset.
