You Will Never See 1 Disney Movie on Disney+

Released in 1946 and produced by Walt Disney with distribution by RKO Radio Pictures, Song of the South was a musical film combining live action and animation. It drew its story from the Uncle Remus tales – a series of African American folktales first collected and published in 1881 by Joel Chandler Harris. While the film was initially successful and even won an Academy Award in 1947 for the song “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah”, it has always been criticized for how it depicts African Americans. Because of this controversy, Disney has never released the film on home video in the United States, and it’s not available on Disney+ either – and it likely never will be.
