The Rescuers (Disney film)/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


The Rescuers

  • Rufus's flashback to when he last saw Penny, alone on her bed, sad because she wasn't adopted, and comforts her with his "Faith is a Bluebird" poem. The music that plays in this scene is also tear jerking. As is Penny saying "I love you, Rufus" while petting the grandfatherly cat.
  • The "Tomorrow is Another Day" montage.
  • Miss Bianca cuddling up with Bernard on their way to Louisiana.
  • Penny praying, not only for herself, but for her teddy, Rufus, and all the kids at her orphanage, and that she and they will all find happy homes and be adopted by new families.

The Rescuers Down Under

  • Cody is kidnapped by McLeach and the boy is dragged away with no other human knowing what has happened and no help will ever come. However, one mouse begs to differ as he rushes to a mouse radio transmission station to start a message relay to New York City to alert the Rescue Aid Society. In this sequence, you see a whole network of mice who have dedicated their lives to ensure for the forgotten and oppressed, help is on the way.
  • At the end, when Bernard finally manages the speech he's been working up to the whole movie: "Miss Bianca, before anything else happens ... will you marry me?"
    • "Oh Bernard, of course I will!"
