One of the classic animated features from the Disney Renaissance, The Lion King is an amazing spectacle. The only movie without people in it, the movie takes place on the African Savannah and centers around the story of a young lion prince named Simba. His life is turned around when his selfish uncle Scar murders his father in order to take the throne. A heart wrenching tale filled with danger, comedy, and romance (not to mention great songs by Tim Rice and Elton John and an epic score by Hanz Zimmer) The Lion King is a must have in any Disney collection.
