The Small One - Advent Calendar House

What this episode covers

🎄 Part 2 of our Christmas donkey double feature presents a completely different origin story of the donkey who carried Mary to Bethlehem. 🎙️ Lindy Kempe and Brandon Medley return to talk “The Small One,” Don Bluth’s last Disney project, released in front of the 1978 re-release of “Pinocchio.” **** 💬 Topics & Tangents: The original book, “The Small One: A Story for Those Who Like Christmas and Small Donkeys.” “Dragon’s Lair.” The Land Before Time toys from Pizza Hut. Mouse in Transition: When Everyone Left Disney (Cartoon Brew, 2014) Don Bluth visited Walt Disney Animation Studios 40 years later. Assistant director Richard Rich went on to direct all 8 Swan Princess movies. (I’m sorry if you just learned there are 8 Swan Princess movies.) One piece of silver, adjusted for inflation. Edits for home video include the Merchants’ song, and the Star of Bethlehem getting extra rays of light to look less cross-shaped. To avoid too much foreshadowing, I guess. Gordon Jump, the voice of Joseph, was on a very special episode of “Diff’rent Strokes.” Yeah. Sorry. **** “The Small One” © 1978 Walt Disney Productions.
