The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad

The 11th Disney animated feature was the last of the so-called package films, those produced by Disney during World War II and the early post-war years. The film tells two mythical stories of British and American literature. The first story is 'The Wind in the Willows', written by Kenneth Grahame and tells the ostentatious life of the gentleman J. Thaddeus Toad, a young quarrelsome billionaire, who squanders his fortune for his obsessions. After being obsessed by cars, Mr. Toad will be involved in a crime that will be found guilty, despite being innocent. Only his most faithful friends will do everything possible to defend it. The second story is 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow', written by Washington Irving. In a pleasant town of Sleepy Hollow, located on the outskirts of the state of New York, comes the unique Professor Ichabod Crane, who will fall madly in love with the beautiful Katrina van Tassel, becoming the rival of the pimp of the town, Brom Bones. The appearance of the ghost of the so-called Headless Horseman during the night of All Hallow's Eve will turn Ichabod Crane's stay into torture.
