Once Upon A Time... Walt Disney: Sources of Inspiration at Disney Studios (DVD)

$59.98

Once upon a time… there was a genius of American mass culture who was captivated and inspired by classical European art. Walt Disney was a gifted storyteller who surrounded himself with brilliant artists from Sweden, Denmark and England, all of whom helped to cultivate and animate his fertile imagination.

This documentary embarks us on a search to find the classical-art sources that inspired the first creations by the Disney studios. Like a journey through WONDERLAND, filmmaker Samuel Doux tells the Disney story with bravura vividness. He merrily weaves various interviews with specialists and excerpts from Disney's most celebrated works together with a dazzling array of stills, as well as numerous 2D and 3D animated sequences. In addition to chronicling the creation of Disney Studios, Doux offers fresh insight into the font of Disney's creativity as he examines the influence on the imagery of such Disney classics as SNOW WHITE, PINOCCHIO and FANTASIA by such artistic masters as Doré, Daumier, Bruegel and many others.

To add something special, the audiovisual department found a 1916 silent film, Snow White by J. Searle Dawley (63 min.), which inspired Walt Disney to create the first full-length animation film in the history of the cinema: Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. This rare film is included as a bonus on the DVD.
