We’re back with our Sacred Texts series, and we’re discussing a cult-classic animated staple, The Land Before Time (1988). That means dinosaurs, Diana Ross, and Don Bluth, plus Spielberg, George Lucas, James Horner, and a c*nty T. Rex who just don’t quit.

Sacred Texts can be art in any medium that you internalize, reflect upon, and find worth or inspiration through beyond the original presentation. These movies or shows could impact you in a number of ways, and they could be Sacred because they are family touchstones, or because of their impact at a certain time in your life, or indicative of a change in your outlook, or for any number of reasons.

We hope you enjoy our episode today, give the film a watch (linked in our show notes), and then keep an eye out for our next Sacred Text entry next month.

Enjoy!

Watch the Sacred Text we discussed today:

About The Land Before Time:

“An orphaned brontosaurus named Littlefoot sets off in search of the legendary Great Valley. A land of lush vegetation where the dinosaurs can thrive and live in peace. Along the way he meets four other young dinosaurs, each one a different species, and they encounter several obstacles as they learn to work together in order to survive.” – JustWatch
