Old School Lane Casual Chats: The Disney Wartime Era

In this episode of Casual Chats, Patricia and special guest Chris "RowdyC" Moore discuss about the animated Disney films from 1943 to 1949 consisting of Saludos Amigos, The Three Caballeros, Make Mine Music, Fun and Fancy Free, Melody Time, and Ichabod and Mr. Toad in honor of Saludos Amigos' 80th anniversary. These slew of films are known as The Wartime Era since they came out during World War II when the European market was very low. In addition, the Walt Disney Animation Studio was going through a strike to unionize their workers with better pay and benefits. Many Disney fans consider this era one of, if not, the worst of the Disney eras. What did Patricia and Chris think of the films? Listen and find out.
