In Memory of Someone Who Did More For Deer Than Anyone Else in the World: Ollie Johnston
Ollie Johnston was the main animator of
Bambi. No, we didn’t know him, but upon reading of his death, we wished
to pay homage to him.
It was reported that it was that
unforgettable scene depicting Bambi’s mother’s death of which he was
most proud. That scene has brought tears to the eyes of generations of
young and old viewers.
No matter how hard hunters and game agencies may try, they will
never lose the terrible stigma of being Bambi’s mom’s killer.
He has left an indelible image that can never be erased by glossy PR.
