Disney recalls 'Rescuers' videos

On Friday, January 8, the Walt Disney Company recalled 3.4 million copies

of "The Rescuers" video release due to two objectionable non-consecutive

frames in the 110,000-frame movie. The frames in question feature a

live-action naked torso of a female in a background image inserted as a gag

by a cameraman when the movie was originally filmed in the 1970s. The 1992

home video release of the animated film didn't use the original print and

therefore didn't have the objectionable images. Under ordinary viewing

circumstances, the two images cannot be seen since they advance at the rate

of 30 frames per second on video. However, the company has said that it is

making the recall to keep its promise to families that they can trust and

rely on the Disny brand to provide the finest in family entertainment.

Customers who have bought the video since its January 5 release may return

the video for exchange by C.O.D. mail to:



Buena Viste Home Entertainment

1240 E. 230th St.

Carson, CA 90745.
