I think every kid should watch this film. It's great preparation for what lies ahead in life.

I was mystified and entranced by this movie as a child. What a strange, incredible masterpiece.

Love this song came out when I was born I'm now 44 my mum n dad called me bright eyes xx

[grahamharper]

Anyone who dismisses this song as corny is truly dead inside, it always puts a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye. Beautiful song.

[corin]

I can’t help it, every time I hear Bright Eyes I‘m bawling my eyes out.

[staminapromos]

I remember watching this when I was about 5 or 6 years old and I cried for about a day. I'm now 47 and this song still makes me cry.

[keelyredman]

I'm 50 and saw this movie as a kid and was traumatised by it. Everytime I hear this song or see this video I cry like I did when I was a kid.

This is the most beautiful movie and song in the world. Sadly whenever we lose a pet this song gets put on a free times. It's just beautiful. RIP Stella Blue

[TWOMINUTETIPSWOODTURNERS]

Art Garfunkel's voice is so perfect for this song.

At the end when hazel dies and goes with the black rabbit so peacefully makes me think how my gran went. Someone calling on her. “Cmon with us margaret your daughter and grandson will be just fine your days here are done come with us and be at peace” xxxx

I’ll never forget seeing this film when it came out, our intermediate school traveled into town to see it, the excitement of going to the movies with your school friends and the story of this incredible film was forever etched into my mind and memories.

The Greatest Children animated film ever made. So incredibly moving

[markbuchanan]

I was 4 years old when my mum taken me to the cinema to see this & the very first 7inch single she bought me
I now have 2 daughters of my own & cannot watch this without tears and I'm nearly 50 years old
In my opinion it's the finest piece of animation ever brought out.

[rhondafoy]

Jeez, for a cartoon this was bloody brutal. I’m still crying for Hazel

[iceetmarne]

One of the most influential films in my life. Taught me a great lesson about life and death. The music is haunting.

[morningstarghuleh]

Nope, still can't even think of this without bawling my eyes out.

[TimmysCreativeCelebrationHub]

In a subtle way Watership Down kinda prepares children for Adulthood. *Remember watching this as a kid and being completely mesmerized*

[edwardbrockbank]

The scene where the rabbits are running away from the development sign is very telling even today.

[jeffreylerille]

I watch this video a few times a year and every time tears run down my face within a half minute. No other song has this kind of affect on me, amazing.
Great movie and book too.🙂

[denisriordan]

it left its mark on me. As a kid I knew who the bullies were and help me deal with a family member’s passing. I think every kid should watch this film. It’s a great preparation for what’s ahead in life. I showed this film to my boys when they were 6and 8 and when I played this tune they looked At what I was watching now at 23and 25 they remember it and we put it on the big screen to watch it. It’s also a lesson of life. I’m so proud of my boys today.
