In 1937, the first full-length animated film produced by Walt
Disney was released. Based on a fairy tale written by the Brothers
Grimm, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was an instant success and
set the stage for more film adaptations over the next several
decades. From animated features like and Bambi to live action films
such as Mary Poppins, Disney repeatedly turned to literary sources
for inspiration-a tradition the Disney studios continues well into
the twenty-first century. In It's the Disney Version!: Popular
Cinema and Literary Classics, Douglas Brode and Shea T. Brode have
collected essays that consider the relationship between a Disney
film and the source material from which it was drawn. Analytic yet
accessible, these essays provide a wide-ranging study of the term
"The Disney Version" and what it conveys to viewers. Among the
works discussed in this volume are Alice in Wonderland, Mary
Poppins, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty, Tarzan, and Winnie the Pooh.
In these intriguing essays, contributors to this volume offer close
textual analyses of both the original work and of the Disney
counterpart. Featuring articles that consider both positive and
negative elements that can be found in the studio's output, It's
the Disney Version!: Popular Cinema and Literary Classics will be
of interest to scholars and students of film, as well as the
diehard Disney fan.
