* like Perri http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050837/
of: 1957. From the 1938 book. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perri_%28film%29 See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perri_%28novel%29 "Perri is a 1938 novel by the author of Bambi, Felix Salten**. Its title character is an Eurasian red squirrel.[1] Bambi makes a brief appearance in "Perri"."

** http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Salten
"Salten was born Siegmund Salzmann in Budapest, Hungary. When he was four weeks old, his family relocated to Vienna, Austria. Many Jews were immigrating into the city during the late 19th century because Vienna had granted full citizenship to Jews in 1867.

When his father became bankrupt, the sixteen-year-old Salten had to quit school and begin working for an insurance agency. He also began submitting poems and book reviews to journals. He became part of the "Young Vienna" movement (Jung Wien) and soon received work as a full-time art and theater critic for Vienna's press (Wiener Allgemeine Zeitung, Zeit). In 1900 he published his first collection of short stories. . . His most famous work is Bambi (1923). It was translated into English in 1928 and became a Book-of-the-Month Club success. In 1933, he sold the film rights to director Sidney Franklin for only $1,000, and Franklin later transferred the rights to the Walt Disney studios. Walt Disney released its movie based on Bambi in 1942.

Life in Austria became perilous for a prominent Jew during the 1930s. Adolf Hitler had Salten's books banned in 1936. Two years later, after Austria had become part of Germany, Salten moved to Zurich, Switzerland, where he lived until his death (buried Israelitischer Friedhof Unterer Friesenberg)."
