|Johnny, the young son of a plantation owner in the Post-Reconstruction American South meets Uncle Remus, a wise old storyteller who tells him stories of a crafty rabbit who uses his wits to avoid being eaten by an evil fox and his dimwitted bear sidekick. It is very pro-family, as it depicts Johnny's family as very caring and protective towards him, especially when they attempt to keep Uncle Remus from seeing him or telling him stories, and when they care for him after he is mauled by the bull. Johnny's parents tell him not to go into the Bull Patch, teaching children to obey their parents. Johnny is also disciplined for outsmarting the Favors children, showing a clear anti-lying message. Johnny's family are conservative Christians, as evidenced by their references to "The Good Lord" and their dressing Johnny up in a fancy Sunday outfit. The scene where Johnny is mocked for wearing a lace collar and called "a girlie" encourages children to dress according to their birth asigned gender, as not doing so could result in unhappiness. Johnny comforts Ginny when she cries, teaching young boys the concept of chivalry. Finally, Br'er Rabbit learns that he can't run away from his troubles, teaching children the concept of personal responsibility.

Unfortunately, the movie ended up an early victim of Disney's turn towards leftism in later years by being banned from getting rereleases outside of pirated editions, presumably due to various race-baiting actions by people like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson by falsely implying the movie was inherently racist.
