Who over age 50 could possibly not have watched this movie in elementary school? It was one of teh most fascinating films we ever saw and was another impression in my mind as to the power of teh Disney "brand". The following NY Times review by Hal Erickson describes it well:
Beaver Valley was the second entry in Walt Disney's popular "True Live Adventures" series. Narrated by Winston Hibler, this 32-minute Technicolor documentary takes the viewer into the wilderness regions of Montana and Minnesota. Cinematographer Alfred Milotte, evidently an extremely patient man, manages to obtain fascinating close-ups of a group of beavers at work and play. Also featured are such "supporting characters" as a coyote, a bear and a family of otters. Kids will love the film's "Frog Symphony," wherein the nocturnal croaking of a bunch of puffed-up frogs and toads is set to music. Like its predecessor Seal Island, Beaver Valley was honored with an Academy Award.
