Jiminy Crickets Episode 178 - So Dear To My Heart Part 2

In honor of the 75th Anniversary of the oft forgotten Disney classic, "So Dear to My Heart," first released in January of 1949, Ruthie and Chris share the story of what Walt Disney cited as one of his all-time personal favorites among the many films he produced. For part two of this two-part episode, Chris will continue to relay the plot as both he and Ruthie discuss the talented performers who appeared in this sentimental family drama, set in the American Midwest at the turn of the twentieth century. Then Ruthie will share everything "So Dear To My Heart" related to happen after the initial premiere of the film.  And as always, you can expect little audio extras and songs from the film.
