11 - The Package Films Part One
“In Disney, squirrels do all the work.”
During the 40's, Disney Studios was going through it. Between labor disputes and financial problems, they weren't able to put together another feature. So their solution was a series of "package films," short films with loose framing stories. So we're packaging all of these films together too.
In this first episode, we start with a trip to South America for Saludos Amigos, but there’s no itinerary here. We bounce between the six films quite a bit, and we talk about petticoats, pop music, and the U.S. State Department along the way.
Next: It's Melody Time, at least until we get chased by the Headless Horseman. That'll be available on May 17th.
Plus, this month as a bonus we'll be releasing an extra episode! Tune in on May 31st to hear some of our stories and memories about the Disney theme parks. Subscribe so you don't miss it!
