Review of The Living Desert

The first of Disney's True-Life documentaries has remarkable footage and revolutionary microphotography (the kind of thing "Microcosmos" was so praised for - they already did it here), but the narration, while sometimes informative, is often unbearably "cutesy". I can take a little anthropomorphizing, but in this case it is overdone. The music score can get obtrusive, too. **1/2 out of 4.
