Walt Disney Legacy Collection/Song of the South

The first official release of the 1946 film Song of the South on home video is scheduled to be released alongside three other sets in the first wave of the Walt Disney Legacy Collection.

Disc One: The Movie
Derived from a 4K high-definition scan of the original negative, the first disc in the set contains Song of the South in its entirety, preceded by a lengthy introduction by Leonard Maltin and Diane Disney Miller putting the film's more offensive and questionable material into context. The introduction also features information about the real Uncle Remus, who is discussed further in a separate documentary (see below).

There are two audio options for the film; a newly mixed DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track and the original theatrical audio (single-channel mono), also under the same audio codec.

Bonus material on Disc One

 * "The Tale of the Song of the South" (first part of a two-part documentary on the making of the film, the controversy surrounding it, its suppression, and its legacy)
 * Audio commentary (Jeff Kurtti, Leonard Maltin, Michael Barrier, Jim Korkis, John Lasseter, and John Canemaker; with archival interview audio by Walt Disney, Ollie Johnston, Marc Davis, Maurice Rapf, and John Lounsbery)
