I had this on VHS but never quite got into it.  I can see why it's a cult movie, but the energy feels off to me or something.  Allan Arkush and Joe Dante co-directed, and co-wrote with others.

I watched a third of this, carried along somewhat by nostalgia, but Winnie really is not a particularly sympathetic character, and I added a "crime comedy" tag because of him trying to not just mooch but steal and trespass.  (And I tuned out before we got to Piglet and Tigger.)  This is of course based on A.A. Milne.  I'm crediting all three directors, although I don't know who did which sequences: John Lounsbery, Wolfgang Reitherman, and Ben Sharpsteen.

Interesting cast and better-than-average-for-the-genre writing but still pretty bloody.  Jerry P. Jacobs directed.
