This is what DisneyDVD should be! Not only is this classic live-action Disney film beautifully restored and brought to DVD format, the "Vault Disney Collection" format has created a modern masterpiece, combining 21st Century technology with timeless Disney storytelling. Disc One includes the restored film, along with audio commentary from Tommy Kirk, Kevin Corcoran, Bob Weatherwax, and Fess Parker. In particular, Disc Two is worth the full price of admission for this set. "Old Yeller: Remembering a Classic" is guaranteed to make you shed a tear. The remembrances of author Fred Gipson are priceless. In addition, Spin and Marty fans will enjoy a trip down memory lane with a return to the set location for this Mickey Mouse Club serial at the "Ranch of the Golden Oak". Included are Production Archives for the film, and the "1957 Disney Studio Album" (video scrapbook) combine for an unforgettable DVD experience. Congratulations to those responsible for creating the "Vault Disney Collection" DVDs. Walt would be proud!

I bought Old Yeller because it was the last of the original four Disney Vault DVDs I did not own. The other three; Pollyana, Swiss Family Robinson and The Parent Trap are among my favorite DVDs. Old Yeller was not as good as the other Disney Vault releases for me. The story seemed contrived about a large stray dog becoming a valuable member of a pioneer family. I know it could have happened and that the story was centered on the dog, just for me it seemed contrived and did not leave me with a feel good impression as most Disney movies do. It is not a classic story in the sense it was published as a book and made into a movie by the Disney studio within a year in the 1950's. I would recommend a rental if possible on this title before purchase. The Disney Vault special features are nice about the filming location and stars and but since the movie was average the special features didn't add much to the overall DVD.Read full review
