#TBT: Watch the Soviet Union’s amazing 1969 adaptation of Winnie the Pooh

You've seen Winnie the Pooh. But have you ever seen Soviet-era Winnie the Pooh, or rather, Vinny Pukh?

Fyodor Khitruk, a Russian animator, drew this 10-minute adaption for Soyuzmultfilm in 1969. A famous Russian actor, Yevgeny Leonov, did the voice of Vinny Pukh.

Two sequels followed in 1971 and 1972.
