Galumphing and a bit bumbling, Brer Bear is Brer Fox's bosom buddy, so when the crafty fox is ready to roast Brer Rabbit for dinner, the burly big guy is more than ready to dig in. The charm of animation is simplicity and pantomime, noted Eric Larson, one of the animal trio's directing animators. Where could you find three more clearly defined characters getting into strange predicaments than in [the tales of Brer Rabbit? The characters were especially fun to animate because they showed a lot of thinking going on behind them.Brer Bear (plussed with a pewter knife and fork) completes this classic scene between the clever rabbit, the sly fox and the dim-witted bruin, showing the rich and colorful chemistry Walt Disney and his artists crafted for the "three Brers."
