I went to see Bambi last night (for the first time even).
1) Bambi's mother is shot by a hunter.
2) Bambi's father shows up on an island in a lake just after the fire
and again in the "inspiring stags looking off the edge of a
cliff agaist the moonlight" scene at the end of the movie.
3) The only two characters that are explictly killed are Bambi's
mother and some non-descript pheasant (a bird anyway) (killed when the
hunters enter the woods for the second time).
4) I noticed that you never got to see Bambi's mother being shot or
after she was shot. My theory is that they're going to bring her
back for B-2 ("The Revenge of Bambi's Mother"?). This is supported
by the way Babmi's father says (to the effect) "You can't see your
mother again" instead of "Your mothers dead".
