I. About the Film

Jungle Book is a 1942 independent American Technicolor action-adventure film by the Hungarian Korda brothers, based on a screenplay adaptation by Laurence Stallings of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, about a wild boy who is kidnapped by villagers who are cruel to animals as they attempt to steal the jungle's lost treasure that possesses people.

The film was directed by Zoltán Korda, produced by his brother Alexander and art directed by their younger brother Vincent. The cinematography was by Lee Garmes and W. Howard Greene and the music was by Miklós Rózsa. The film starred Sabu Dastagir as Mowgli. Because of the war, the British Korda brothers had moved their film making to Hollywood in 1940, and Jungle Book is one of the films they made during that Hollywood period.

III. About the Writer

The Jungle Book (1894) is a collection of stories by English author Rudyard Kipling. The stories are fables, using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons. A principal character is the boy or "man-cub" Mowgli, who is raised in the jungle by wolves. Other characters include Shere Khan the tiger and Baloo the bear. The book has been adapted many times for film and other media.
The stories were first published in magazines in 1893–94. The original publications contain

illustrations, some by the author's father, John Lockwood Kipling. Rudyard Kipling was born in India and spent the first six years of his childhood there. After about ten years in England, he went back to India and worked there for about six-and-a-half years. These stories were written when Kipling lived in Naulakha, the home he built in Dummerston, Vermont, in the United States. There is evidence that Kipling wrote the collection of stories for his daughter Josephine, who died from pneumonia in 1899, aged 6; a rare first edition of the book with a handwritten note by the author to his young daughter was discovered at the National Trust's Wimpole Hall in Cambridgeshire, England, in 2010.

IV. My Reaction

A. Reaction Point - film director　映画の製作を指示者、英語監督　

• 定義　the person who directs the making of a film
• 例  The film was personally produced by Walt Disney.
• 略　The Jungle Book is a 1967 American animated musical comedy film produced by Walt Disney Productions. Inspired by Rudyard Kipling's book of the same name, it is the 19th Disney animated feature film. Directed by Wolfgang Reitherman, it was the last film to be produced by Walt Disney, who died during its production.

B. Reaction Point - characters　人物

• 定義　persons — or animals or natural forces represented as persons — in a work of literature　
• 例　The main characters are is a human child Mowgli who Raised by wolves.　And has appeared in many animals.
• 略　When Mowgli left alone in the jungle, Bagheera of Black Panther was helped. And brought up to the Raksha of Wolf.　Mowgli poured much love Raksha. Bagheera is the wisdom to survive in the jungle and grow to learn the harshness of nature.                   Until the boy was raised by wolves return to human society and encounter various incidents, through components and the adventure story.

C. Reaction Point - message　中心的な考えやストーリーの声明

• 定義　the central idea or statement of a story
• 例　This film of message is be yourself.　
• 略　Mowgli work hard to loves life in the jungle animals differ from their own.　However, bear baloo advised Mowgli that "don't like wolves. Mowgli could live in society". It looks like at first glance nothing strange words, but for us in the important words.　 I think that it is facing a serious problem faced by modern, no one think for yourself using your own creativity and take action.　Mowgli is ｆacing teachings from baloo, think yourself and take action.　This movie I teaches that the true way to live like us.

D. My General Opinion
I first met this work on elementary school. Started by watching Disney cartoons. Scene boy with cute woodland animals explore various places in the forest to go very happily I was excited.

2016 Went to see in the live-action film. Unlike the anime, all the animals have vividly drawn.
