Featured review
A Cotton Club for bugs?
"Woodland Café" is a film that I am sure the Disney Corporation would like to forget about, as it hasn't aged well. Well, at least in some ways it hasn't aged well. The animation is terrific...as is the Technicolor. But the idea of making a Cotton Club for bugs starring 'black' bugs as entertainers simply is a dated stereotype...one that many today would find offensive.
By the way, the dance between the spider and the lady bug is called 'The Apache Dance'...a French dance popularized in Bohemian cafés. It is supposed to parody a fight between a pimp and one of his working girls and it is an odd choice for a kids film.
Overall, well animated but strange and easy to skip. Not bad...just not all that good either.
