“A little thing happened in Bambi. My daughter, Diane, was quite a reader. She was about nine years old. She had read the book. When I finished the picture and brought it home and ran it, she cried when Bambi’s mother was killed. And afterwards she said to me, ‘Daddy, why did you have to kill Bambi’s mother?’ And I said, ‘Well it was in the book, dear.’ She said, ‘There were plenty of things in the book that you changed. Why couldn’t you have changed that?’ She had me there.” - Walt Disney, 1941
