IMDb profile


The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is a full-length animated film produced by Buena Vista Distribution and first released on March 11, 1977. It is the twenty-second animated feature in the Disney animated features canon. The movie is based upon the Winnie the Pooh books by A. A. Milne.

The film is actually composed of material from three previously released animated shorts:

The film and its characters have spawned an industry of sequels, television programs, clothing, books, and toys.

The film differs from the three individual shorts by having newly-created linking material, and an ending to give closure to the stories. It was always Walt Disney's intention to create a feature film, but he decided to make shorts instead — after production had begun — to familiarize US audiences with the characters. All three shorts as well as future feature films boast classic songs by the Sherman Brothers including "Winnie The Pooh" and "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers".

The film also inspired an attraction of the same name at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World.
