Rankin/Bass, Wind in the Willows - Pâté de Foie Gras

NO FROZEN MILKY WAYS D:
song sequence from rankin/bass wind in the willows (1985)

[@AlvinEarthworm]

For someone who claimed he had never seen the daylight before at the beginning of the movie, Mole is surprisingly knowledgeable about food.

[@MartenFerret]

Everyone in England eats like this.

[@Visplight]

The grocer delivers.

[@c.bretmiller6148]

He's got a Blue Apron membership.

The state of my quarantine pantry

[@ilonanispen24]

Love this song i love all the songs from this wonderful movie. :) By far the best version of the wind in the willows. ^_^

[@MartenFerret]

Considering the stores are out of everything during this virus scare, this song carries a LOT of relevance today! XD I will make a cartoon drawing of this idea late today.

[@s.o.4956]

I only ever saw the stop motion version 😭 I never knew an animated one existed I’m going to have to watch it for Christmas

[@bezoticallyyours83]

You know your roughing it when there's no pate de foie gras. XD

[@saphari22]

MY NOSTALGIA... IT'S OVER 9,000!!!!!!!

[@draconiclady0610]

"No frozen Milky Ways!" turn this buggy around, I ain't going nowhere!

[@huntress1863]

I'm so confused by that line. What exactly is a frozen Milky Way?

[@draconiclady0610]

It's a Milky Way candy bar tossed in the freezer.

[@LogoMan7777]

@@draconiclady0610 Or, if you're an American, it's a 3 Musketeers bar thrown in the freezer.

"*You* have forgotten ev'rything!" Very rhythmic, Ratty! I love rhythmic lines, don't you? Silly, silly, silly! LOL

+85Bookgurl The wonderful Roddy McDowall...

[@85Bookgurl]

+Jonathan Owen Yep, you go, Roddy McDowall! RIP! (1928-1998)

[@85Bookgurl]

Ah yes, and E. F. Duncan of Duncan's Toy Chest in "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York"! May he rest in peace! (1915-2002)

[@33onlytwin]

In theory it shouldn't work using American voice actors for such an English source, yet there's a richness and idiosyncracy in the actors/voices chosen that ties in very well.

[@collinsnider4179]

Better than most Disney songs

No frozen milky ways D:

[@LogoMan7777]

Whenever you think Rankin/Bass, you should think Roddy McDowall and Paul Frees.

[@bazbanter9329]

Does anyone else know the guy who voices Mole in this movie is Eddie Bracken? The guy who plays "Mr Duncan" who owns the toy store in Home Alone 2! 😁

[@bronysimpson3250]

Baz Banter93 I never knew that before.

[@highlander723]

everybody was singing this during the pandemic when other shelves were empty

[@RachelDeRosier010894]

The bourgeoisie who survived the French Revolution

[@CMDParodies]

No frozen milky ways?!

[@LogoMan7777]

No frozen Milky Ways!?

[@loganmaxwell1429]

2:11 I don't know about you, but that ending was comedic. Don't you think?

[@jaysammichmcfancypants4299]

where can one find this full movie in English? It was one of my favorites as an 80's child

[@MartenFerret]

I got the DVD from Ebay, but it's NOT cheap!

[@MartenFerret]

They have frog legs. ;)

[@Gunganfan]

He's a toad, so I wouldn't recommend it.

[@MrKaraokeguy88]

No quince?!

[@renerventfranklin668]

can anyone please share the lyrics of this song?

[@CMDParodies]

Ryan Franklin I vote for this too. Would love to sing along and annoy the neighbours
