Trivia:
Walt Disney told his animation crew to "throw away" Rudyard Kipling's book, "The Jungle Book" because the resulting storyboards were too dark and dramatic. "Bare Necessities", was the only song he liked and kept because the music along with the draft was also too dark and dramatic. more
Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: After the fight with the monkeys Baloo and Bagheera have a black eye. There is a later shot from below the water that some have misinterpreted as a reflected (mirror image) shot, showing the black eyes on the same sides as they have been throughout. more
Quotes:
[first lines]
Bagheera:
Many strange legends are told of these jungles of India, but none so strange as the story of a small boy named Mowgli. It all began when the silence of the jungle was broken by an unfamiliar sound.
[Sound of baby crying]
Bagheera:
It was a sound like one never heard before in this part of the jungle. It was a man cub! Had I known how deeply I was to be involved, I would've obeyed my first impulse and walked away.

When I was a child of eight I saw Bambi for the first time and I left the theatre with tears in my eyes. Many years later I saw The Jungle Book and again I had tears in my eyes, but this time of laughing. This is the funniest and most entertaining cartoon I ever saw. And so beautifully drawn. It's a masterpiece. The music is fine. Lots of fun for young and old! Hans Dullaart. Netherlands
