'''''Allegro Non Troppo''''' ([[Incredibly Lame Pun|but there are tropes]]) is an Italian animated film functioning as a parody of Disney's ''[[Fantasia]]''. Like ''Fantasia'', ''Allegro Non Troppo'' melds classical music with animation, the sequences ranging from [[Intoxication Ensues|utterly bizarre]] to [[Tear Jerker|depressing beyond belief]]. Between the pieces are short, sepia-tone, live-action shots of the orchestra and the animator. Pieces played in the film are:
* ''Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune'' by Claude Debussy--A parody of Beethoven's Pastorale from ''Fantasia'', where an elderly faun tries to get a nymph for himself, but fails every time.
* ''Slavonic Dance No. 7 Op. 46'' by Antonín Dvořák -A caveman sets out to build better dwellings than the other cavemen, who repeatedly mimic every act he does.
Line 9:
* ''Concerto in C major for 2 Oboes, 2 Clarinets, Strings and Continuo RV 559 I. Larghetto - (Allegro)'' by Antonio Vivaldi--A bee tries to enjoy a meal on a flower only to have a rowdy couple thwart her attempts.
* ''The Firebird'' by Igor Stravinsky--God makes Adam and Eve and the serpent tries to get them to eat the apple of knowledge. When they refuse, the serpent eats it himself and is thrown into a hellish environment of Western materialism and commercialism.

* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Despite needling Disney, this movie does a great job of capturing ''Fantasia''{{'}}s flavor.
* [[Alternate Continuity]]: Ever wonder what would happen if Adam and Eve didn't eat that apple?
* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Averted. Since it's a European film, it's not afraid to show some nudity.
