Experience Walt Disney's timeless classic, THE ADVENTURES OF ICHABOD AND MR. TOAD. Disney animation's humorous retelling of two unforgettable classics, THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS and THE LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW, wonderfully narrated by Basil Rathbone and Bing Crosby, brings them together in one magnificent adventure. First, hang on for a wild ride with the fun-loving Mr. J. Thaddeus Toad. When his passion for motorcars lands him in hot water, he must rely on his faithful friends to clear his name. Then, meet the infamous Ichabod Crane whose comic rivalry for the affections of the town beauty leads to a heart-pounding race with the legendary Headless Horseman. Share these high-spirited adventures with your whole family!|Legend has it that the animator assigned to this film departed to serve in the Army during World War II, then returned four years later only to resume animating the exact same sequence he'd been working on!|Several of the characters from MR. TOAD appear in the 1983 short, "Mickey's Christmas Carol": Cyril, Toad (as Scrooge's first employer), Rat and Mole (as collectors for the poor), and two of the weasels (as gravediggers).|The film was originally titled TWO FABULOUS CHARACTERS.|Despite his huge nose, huge ears, and wispy red hair plaited tightly into a pigtail, Ichabod is portrayed as a ladies' man in the film.|"The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow" (ICHABOD) section of the movie is one of the few instances in a Disney film in which a bully -- Brom Bones -- gets the girl.
