Blu-ray Release: The Lorax (1972)
Exactly 40 years ago today, Dr. Seuss’ book The Lorax was released as a 25-minute 2D-animated TV special. Up there as one of the most brilliant of the Dr. Seuss stories/specials, the short film has a whole lot more under the surface than you may expect.
This classic is being released on Blu-ray just in time for the release of a CGI feature-length version of The Lorax story on March 2nd, and is well worth adding to your collection and re-watching before then.
The set also includes the following special features:
• Featurette: The Lorax: The Trees! The Trees! The Voice of the Trees
Plus the two following Dr. Seuss animated stories:
• Pontoffel Pock & His Magic Piano
• Butter Battle Book
The Lorax is rated PG, and the bonus material is unrated.
