Mitzi



Mitzi is the wife of Blitzen, the mother of Rudolph, the sister-in-law of Comet, Cupid and Dasher, the aunt of Arrow and a supporting character in the 1998 film Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: The Movie.

She is voiced by Debbie Reynolds.

She first appears at the start of the film in her home with Blitzen and their newborn son whom they name Rudolph. Rudolph tries to take his first steps but tumbles into a hay bale to which Mitzi and Blitzen rush over to see if he is okay. Rudolph is unharmed but when he sneezes, his nose lights up in front of his shocked parents. A few days later, Mitzi and Blitzen give Rudolph a tour of Santa's village where they meet up with Blitzen's brothers Comet, Cupid and Dasher who wish to see Rudolph. Blitzen worried that about what his brothers will think of Rudolph's nose, tries to hide his son but Mitzi convinces him not to. After Rudolph's nose lights up in front of the other villagers, Mitzi and Blitzen take Rudolph and walk away and sing "What About His Nose?" but when the villagers laugh at Rudolph's nose, Mitzi and an angry Blitzen take a confused Rudolph away. Mitzi and Blitzen then take Rudolph to Santa's workshop where they witness the confrontation between Santa and Stormella who closes off her bridge to public and warns that she will cast a storm if anyone crosses it.

Appearance
Mitzi has brown and cream fur with black tipped ears and blue eyes.

Trivia

 * Mitzi is similar to Bambi's Mother as both are deer, both are married to important figures (Mitzi is married to Blitzen, lead reindeer of Santa Claus sleigh team whilst Bambi's mother was married to The Great Prince of the Forest, the leader of the animals of the forest). Both are also the mother of the protagonist (Mitzi to Rudolph and Bambi's mother to Bambi). However unlike Bambi's mother, Mitzi doesn't die.
