Trivia
This movie was the biggest Hungarian box-office hit in the 1980s. In 1981, it was also chosen as movie of the year. This is an especially notable achievement, as the jury of the Hungarian Film Week festival have previously dismissed animated works. Reportedly, a single critic convinced them to give the film a chance.

Goofs
At the beginning of the movie father fox is about to hunt food while mother fox takes care of the children. During the conversation the amount of children resting by mother fox changes from five (Vuk and four siblings) to six (Vuk and five siblings).

Quotes
Young Vuk: Am I stupid, Karak?
Karak, old fox: No you are not Vuk. You just don't know enough, yet.

Alternate versions
There are two English versions available. The first, harder to find version is a fairly faithful uncut dub of the original movie. More recent VHS releases sloppily cut the film by 12 minutes. Most notably, the dialog is toned down ("stupid" becomes "silly"), and all the death scenes removed.

I hate this weighted rating

In case of movies that were commented by a lot of users, it might work, but to give 5.8 for this movie when out of 40 votes (at present) only 3 was below seven, and 42% voted this movie 10, it is really not working. This movie is simply great, beautiful, moving, I loved it with my all heart as a child and cried together with the other kids in the kindergarten...I don't repeat the story, but this is really a uniquely nice movie and it is really a shame that it seems to be some 5.8 crap only because of this weighted rating.
