Podcast appearances and mentions of Alice Comedies

Mickey Mouse, Cendrillon, Simba, Mary Poppins, Bambi ou encore les Aristochats : impossible de nommer tous les personnages qui ont bercé l'enfance, et peut-être d'ailleurs pas que l'enfance, des 8 milliards de Terriens. D'autant que leur grande famille s'est élargie avec les héros de Star Wars, les Avengers, et le catalogue de Pixar et de Fox. Coup de projecteur aujourd'hui sur Disney, le mastodonte du divertissement à l'occasion de l'escale parisienne de l'exposition du centenaire. Le 16 octobre 1923, un jeune homme ambitieux de 22 ans passionné de dessin, et qui veut se faire une place et un nom dans l'industrie encore naissante du cinéma, Walt Disney donc rejoint son frère Roy à Hollywood et signe un contrat, pour produire une série de courts-métrages muets, Alice Comedies. Ce document marque alors le lancement du Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio et donc de la Walt Disney Company. C'est l'acte de naissance officiel de ce qui deviendra une major et un mastodonte de l'industrie du divertissement, produisant et distribuant des films, mais aussi éditant des livres, gérant des parcs d'attraction à travers le monde.Ce contrat, on le voit affiché sur le mur de l'exposition du centenaire, qui tourne dans le monde entier, et, après Londres, Séoul ou Munich, fait escale jusqu'au 5 octobre 2025 à Paris au Parc des expositions.On peut y voir quelque 250 objets, des premières esquisses de la souris Mickey, qui naît officiellement le 18 novembre 1928, aux casques des héros de la saga Star Wars (Disney ayant racheté Lucasfilm en 2012) en passant par la pantoufle de verre de Cendrillon ou la boule de neige de Mary Poppins.Pour revenir sur ce centenaire de création, d'innovation, de succès incroyables mais aussi d'échecs et d'enjeux, nous recevons Sébastien Durand, un proche de la famille Disney et un expert de cet univers, porte-parole officiel de l'exposition en France.

This week, Mousetalgia celebrates Disney100 by speaking with Laurieanne Zandbergen, the daughter of Virginia Davis, who was the little girl hired by Walt and Roy Disney to perform as "Alice" for their Alice comedies on Oct. 16, 1923, marking the "official" birthday of the Walt Disney Company. Laurieanne talks about her mother's memories of working with Walt, the history of the Alice Comedies, and the importance of the role Virginia played in the formation of Walt's career. Then, we speak with Melissa Cavanagh, a very close friend of Mickey Mouse, about Mickey's career including meeting fans, staying optimistic, and ice skating. Plus - facts about mouse circuses, Mickey's Circus remembered - and more. Keep in touch - comments@mousetalgia.com

It has been 100 years since a young animator sold his first film series, called Alice Comedies, to a distributor. Without knowing, he was starting what became one of the world's biggest media empires. The company took his family name: Disney. The studio has led and shaped the animation industry for generations, and it's now in the very heart of global culture. In this episode of The Cultural Frontline, we speak to animators responsible for some of Disney and Pixar's most successful films. We also explore the creative, technological and cultural challenges Disney and the wider animation industry are facing today. Veteran animator Floyd Norman has worked with Disney since the 1950s, on films like Sleeping Beauty and The Jungle Book. His colleague Tony Bancroft was the co-director of Mulan and the creator of one of the most beloved Disney characters, Pumbaa the warthog, in The Lion King. They talk about the milestones of Disney history. Oscar-winning director Brenda Chapman reflects on the role of women on screen and in production, and talks about the inspiration for Merida, Brave's anti-princess. Plus, Rebecca Sugar, and Frank Abney discuss how the fight for LGBTQ+ rights and the Black Lives Matter movement are changing the animation industry. Presenter: Brian Sibley Producer: Constanza Hola

After the Alice Comedies, it was time for Walt to create a new star, one that didn't rely on a live actor being inserted into the animation. But this star was not yet Mickey Mouse, but instead Oswald the Lucky Rabbit! Today we look at perhaps the most iconic Oswald short, while talking about the character's origins. The short might be iconic, but is it any good? Listen to find out! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/howsitholdup/support

The final Alice Comedy we'll be covering, this one is indicative of the trend with this series of Alice as a character being minimized so the short can focus on the cartoons. Also Pete's here and he's got a hat! Is this the best of the bunch, or was this series ready to be thrown out? Listen to find out! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/howsitholdup/support

Today's Alice Comedy is the very first appearance of a Disney character that's still around and in use today! And I don't mean Mickey Mouse! No, I mean Mickey's eventual main villain - Pete! Yes, it's true, Pete, sometimes known as Peg-Leg Pete and in this cartoon known as Bootleg Pete, is older than Mickey or even Mickey's 'cousin' Oswald the Lucky Rabbit! But sure, the cartoon is noteworthy for that reason, but... is it actually any good? Listen to find out! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/howsitholdup/support

Another week another Alice Comedies short! This one has a lot of live action in it and a lot of child actors! It was also released in theatres, unlike the first Alice Comedies short we watched. Did it deserve to be? How's this thing hold up? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/howsitholdup/support

Most people might think of the old black and white Mickey Mouse cartoons as Disney's first main cartoon shorts series, and some might even recall that a certain Lucky Rabbit had a series before Mickey. But Walt's first long-running series of cartoon shorts were actually the Alice Comedies - a series of live-action/animation hybrids featuring a little girl named Alice interacting with an animated world. This is the very first of those, though this particular cartoon was only used to try to sell the series to distributors, rather than to entertain an audience. Should it have been put in front of an audience, though? Or is this one best left for the Disney Vault? Listen to find out! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/howsitholdup/support

Disney has given plenty of work to child actors over the years. Some have gone on to fame and notoriety. Others...have not. Learn about Kurt Russell, Shirley Temple, Britney Spears, and the sad, complicated tale of Peter Pan himself, Bobby Driscoll on Theme Park Time Machine. SOURCES Walt Disney’s last words were “Kurt Russell”, According to Kurt Russell on HuffPost The Psychology of Adolescent Fame on Network 1901 Song of The SouthPeter Pan CNN - Britney is bald! Follow Me Boys Screech Archival JFK Jr. Archival Shirley Temple Archival Adam's Script Oh to be a kid again. No bills, no body aches, no responsibilities. Your whole life ahead of you. Nothing but whimsy and potential. Maybe that is why we are so drawn to the stories of child stars.  For example, Shirley Temple. She made her film debut at the age of three, and before her 10th birthday, was one of the biggest stars in the world. This continued through the 1930s and into her teenage years in the 1940s.  After some TV hosting gigs in the 50s and 60s, Shirley Temple became active in the California Republican Party, and was appointed ambassador to Ghana in the 70s, and ambassador to Czechoslovakia in the 80s, the only woman ever to hold that post.  She served on the board of directors of several organizations, including Bank of America and Disney, and received the Screen Actors Guild Lifetime Achievement Award and Kennedy Center honors before her death in 2014. Of course - Shirley Temple is a mostly-positive outcome. For every one of those, I can think of many examples of child stars who weren’t so lucky. I think that one of the most important things about being a kid, is the freedom to screw up. And when you get into some kind of hijinks, assuming no one gets hurt and no one destroys any irreplaceable property, the grownups in your life are likely to chalk up your misbehavior to that old cliche... “Kids will be kids!” But what happens when kids DON’T get the chance to be kids?  John F Kennedy, Jr was the first child ever born to an American president-elect, and he was a world famous celebrity pretty much from the moment he entered the world in November 1960. The paparazzi followed him and his equally famous mother around the world, and he never really had a private moment to himself.  The pressures of his public life, failing marriage, and unrealistic expectations created the stress that ultimately led to his fatal plane crash at the age of just 38 in the summer of 1999. Then there’s Dustin Diamond. Starring as Screech on the 90’s smash-hit Saved by The Bell, Diamond was a megastar before he was even a teenager. Dustin couldn’t find sustained work as an actor post-adolescence, and his later life was riddled with substance abuse, domestic violence accusations, prison stints, and of course the requisite starring role in an amateur...um...adult feature. Dustin Diamond passed away this year after a short battle with cancer.  Similar fates awaited Jodie Swetin, AKA Stephanie Tanner on Full House, Danny Bonaduce, AKA Danny Partridge, pretty much all of the child stars on Different Strokes: Todd Bridges, Gary Coleman, and Dana Plato...I think you get the idea. Having given work to countless child stars over the years, it’s not surprising that Disney has made its fair share of contributions to the curse of the child star.  Who’s fallen victim to it? Who’s escaped it, and maybe most importantly of all...what can we do about it?   It’s March 17, 2021. Actor Kurt Russell, a former child star himself turns 70 today. Recently, you may have seen Kurt portraying Ego in Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2. Or possibly starring as the one and only Santa Claus in The Christmas Chronicles. In addition to now being part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Kurt Russell has some deep Disney roots. How deep? Let’s point the time machine to December 1966. Burbank, California, just north of Los Angeles. It’s almost Christmas...it’s also Southern California, so of course it’s sunny and delightful outside. But not everyone is feeling the warm LA vibes. At St. Joseph’s Hospital, Walt Disney is near death. On December 15th, just 10 days after his 65th birthday, he’ll succumb to lung cancer, the end result of a lifelong smoking habit. Jump ahead 4 years, and Disney archivist Dave Smith was tasked with documenting everything in Walt’s office, which had remained virtually untouched since his death. On Walt’s desk was a note he intended for his older brother Roy, quite possibly, though we can’t be certain about this, the last correspondence he ever wrote. And among other things on the note was a name...Kurt Russell. What did that note mean? Well, I can’t answer that definitively, because the only person who really knows the answer is the guy who wrote it...and he’s not around anymore. But here’s what we do know. Walt Disney was a big fan of Kurt Russell. In the winter of ‘66, Kurt was a baby-faced 15 year old. Walt’s studio had just released a movie called “Follow Me, Boys”, about a traveling musician-turned-scoutmaster in Depression-era America, with Kurt in a minor role. Walt always had an eye for young talent, and he knew Kurt was talented. The affection was mutual. Kurt said Walt reminded him of his own grandfather-warm, welcoming, and creative.  Once, Walt gave Kurt career advice; Kurt enjoyed acting, but what he really wanted was to be a professional baseball player. Years later, his dad, actor Bing Russell, even owned the independent minor league Portland Mavericks. Walt said he didn’t think it was a great career path.  Kurt...eventually came to the same conclusion. Follow Me, Boys was Kurt’s first Disney film, but it wouldn’t be his last. In fact, he signed a ten year contract with the studio, and even though the live-action Disney movies of the late 60s and early 70s...well...aren’t exactly cinema classics, Kurt Russell quickly became a household name and had no trouble finding work.  In fact, when you look through his list of credits, hardly a year went by that he didn’t star in something. From Jack Burton in Big Trouble in Little China, to Lieutenant Gabriel Cash in Tango & Cash, to Wyatt Earp in Tombstone, Kurt was a bankable, bona fide movie star. Disney recognized his influence on entertainment by making him a Disney Legend in 1998. And it all started with a wholesome slate of Disney movies and, more importantly, a child star. Kids have always featured heavily in Disney’s particular brand of family-friendly entertainment. That tradition goes all the way back to the late 20s. A young Walt Disney produced a series of shorts called The Alice Comedies. These shorts featured the first appearance of Virginia Davis, portraying the real-life Alice. Davis had a 20 year film career before retiring in the late 1940s, raising a family, and becoming a successful realtor in Southern California. When it comes to child stars....people like Kurt Russell, Shirley Temple and Virginia Davis seem to be the exception, and not the rule. Enter Britney Spears. One of the biggest pop stars of the late 20th and early 21st centuries and in fact, the best selling teenage musician of all time. Last year in 2020, Rolling Stone named “Hit Me Baby One More Time” as the greatest debut single ever.  Yep, ever. Like, in the whole history of music. Like Kurt Russell before her, Britney Spears got her start as a Disney star! In this case, as a Mouseketeer alongside some other folks you’ve probably heard of, Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, Cristina Aguilera, and Keri Russell. Then, by the mid to late 2000s, everything seemed to shift. If Britney Spears got any press, it was about her behavior off the stage. The media labeled her wild, erratic, and an unfit mother. Her ongoing struggles with mental health and addiction were pursued and publicized relentlessly. The same media that praised her as “The next Madonna or Debbie Gibson” now seemed to relish her falling to pieces.  It was during this time that Britney’s estate entered a conservatorship, supervised by her father, an arrangement that controversially continues to this day. One of the most talented and promising child and teen stars of all time is now an almost-forty year old woman who has very little control over her own life and finances. And then, in the “definitely a sad story” department of former child stars, there’s Bobby Driscoll. Bobby was born in Iowa in 1937, but when he was just five years old, his family packed up and moved to Los Angeles. Like Roy Disney a few decades earlier, his father was told the warm climate would ease his respiratory problems, in this case, years of working with asbestos. Bobby’s breakout role came later that year in the MGM drama Lost Angel. The roles came quickly, and by the time he was seven, he was under contract with Disney. His first starring role came in Walt’s first feature film in years, the now notorious and maligned Song of the South. His portrayal of Johnny was so well received that he was getting Oscar buzz for the category of Best Juvenile performance...which evidently used to be a thing. Bobby’s Disney star continued to rise in the 50s, when he starred in Walt’s first ever completely live-action film, an adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. At the same time, he was giving voice to the absolute embodiment of childhood adventure and whimsy, the one and only Peter Pan. But youth fades quickly, and so does youth stardom. By the time Peter Pan was released in 1953, Bobby was 16 years old. Kind of an iffy time in the life of a child actor. Too old to play kids, not old enough to play adults. His voice was changing, and his face was breaking out so badly that he needed a couple extra layers of makeup anytime he was on screen. It all got to be too much for Disney to cope with. They terminated his contract shortly after the release of Peter Pan, and Bobby Driscoll was officially unemployed. For the first time in more than ten years, Bobby was enrolled in a public high school.  He was bullied relentlessly by his peers. Driscoll turned to drugs, first marijuana, and later heroin. He was arrested for drug possession in 1956, and infamous Hollywood gossip columnist Hedda Hopper predicted it would be the downfall of his career. In an attempt to distance himself from the youthful roles of the past, Bobby began using the screen name “Robert Driscoll”. He found some work in minor TV roles, but nothing like the superstardom he’d known in the early part of the decade.  Hedda Hopper, it turned out, was right. Bobby’s career was over. He continued using drugs, and soon found himself in a combination prison/drug rehab facility. When he was released, he was bitter and resentful for the way he’d been treated his whole life. Bobby moved to New York City and became part of artist Andy Warhol’s circle. He made his final film appearance in a Warhol-produced film called Dirt in 1965. Three years later, two kids playing in an abandoned apartment found his body on a cot, surrounded by beer bottles. While the coroner determined he’d died of heart failure with contributing drug abuse, no one knew who he was. His unclaimed body was buried in an unmarked pauper’s grave.  When his mother went searching for him to reunite him with his terminally ill father, the NYPD finally made a match with his fingerprints on file. His death wasn’t reported publicly until the 25th anniversary re-release of Song of the South in 1971, when reporters learned about his fate while researching the movie’s stars. It’s incredibly sad and ironic that the boy who played Peter Pan...quite literally never got the chance to grow up. So what’s the lesson here? This sounds really saccharine, but my biggest takeaway is just...be kind. Even if they ARE famous, kids need space to be kids.  And we need to be even more mindful of the social and emotional growth that kids need, in an era where you can be famous just by having a popular YouTube channel or TikTok. Famous or not, influencer or not, kids need what we all need. Support, and the knowledge that someone’s in our corner who cares about us, will listen to us, and is on our side. You can accomplish that, right now, with a phone call or a text.That’s a solution we can all be a part of. “I do not miss childhood, but I miss the way I took pleasure in small things, even as greater things crumbled. I could not control the world I was in, could not walk away from things or people or moments that hurt, but I took joy in the things that made me happy.” ― Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane Theme Park Time Machine is a production of No Midnight Media.

An animator, innovator, and yes, someone with some less than savory viewpoints and a dark side. This week on The Tinsel Factory, we're covering the life of Walt Disney: an international celebrity by the time he was 30, heralded as a genius before the age of 40, he won more Oscars than anyone in film history, and changed the way families go on vacation.

  L'adaptation de contes de fées en films d'animation est l'une des spécialités des Studios Disney depuis les années 1920 avec Alice Comedies en passant par Blanche Neige et les Sept Nains, Cendrillon, Raiponce... Si Walt Disney en personne pensait à adapter La Reine des Neiges, le conte écrit par le Danois Hans Christian Andersen, il a fallu pourtant attendre 2013 pour que La Reine Elsa, version Disney, enflamme le public. Comment le projet a-t-il évolué durant toutes ces années ? Comment l'écriture de la chanson Libérée, Délivrée a-t-elle changé le scénario ? Comment le succès du film s'est-il propagé au point de devenir un incontournable du septième art et au-delà, un véritable phénomène de société ? Avec plus d'un milliard de dollars de recettes au box-office mondial et un immense succès tant critique que commercial, La Reine des Neiges est depuis largement devenu un marqueur dans l'histoire même des studios Disney. Dans ce nouvel épisode, Franck, Fred, Guillaume, Léo, Thibaut, Victoire et Samantha  (Euh... Samantha ?) reviennent donc sur la création du premier opus mais aussi du musical monté à Broadway,  des nouvelles animations à Disneyland Paris et dans chaque Parc Disney du monde, des courts et moyens-métrages sans oublier le special LEGO. Ils s'attardent bien sûr longuement sur la suite, La Reine des Neiges II, sortie six ans plus tard, en novembre 2019, et dont la légitimité a longtemps fait débat mais qui est parvenue, contre toute attente et presque instantanément à conquérir, elle aussi, le cœur du public.

Change is the only thing that’s constant. We all know that. Managing change is the biggest challenge that most of the growing companies face. Change is what makes most companies fail. So imagine the strength it takes for a company to not just manage change but also endure it and win over it. That’s Disney for you. Disney was founded in the year 1923 by Walt Disney. It initially started as an animation studio called Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio. They started with silent Alice Comedies short films featuring a live-action child actress in an animated world. They slowly started creating short animated films, then moved on to rebrand themselves as the Walt Disney studios in 1929. That’s a story that all of us know. In today’s episode we are going to focus on Disney’s growth and marketing strategies that helped them not just reach the top place but also sustain it for so long. Also, we’ll be talking a little bit about how they make their customers happy! As we like to call it - 96 years of disney in 9.6 minutes.

Happy Women’s History Month! Hosts Courtney and Emily celebrate the hundreds of unsung female heroines of The Walt Disney Company, the inkers and painters of animated films. Mindy Johnson’s Ink and Paint traces the role of women from the creation of Walt Disney’s Alice Comedies to the computer colored features of “Disney Renaissance” classics like Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin or Lion King. Women have always been a part of The Walt Disney Company, but their story is rarely told in such colorful detail.

En première partie de cette Matinale, on reçoit Marie-Luce Viaud et Nicolas Hervé, chercheurs à l'INA, pour parler de l'enquête L'information à tout prix. Son point de départ: comprendre si les média ont un intérêt économique à produire une information originale. L'étude met en avant la forte homogénéité des contenus présents sur internet et le phénomène des médias qui se copient eux-mêmes, sans plus produire d'information exclusive. 64% des informations trouvées sur internet seraient du copié-collé. Les auteurs soulignent que, pour ce faire, il faut des journalistes professionnels. Dans un univers comme internet où il est très facile de faire du copié-collé et où la diffusion est très rapide, l'écueil est inévitable et il faut le garder à l'esprit. Si le journaliste n'envoie pas son article à temps et que l'éditeur dispose d'une dépêche AFP, il préférera la publier et ne pas perdre de temps.Les auteurs de l'étude ont travaillé sur un corpus de près de 80 médias présents sur internet en 2013, à peu près 25 000 événements médiatiques. Ils ont identifiés différentes stratégies de publications, allant de la publication la nuit pour des médias régionaux, l'accumulation de petites informations, ou le choix de délaisser l'actualité chaude au profit d'une publication d'information originale comme dans le cas de Médiapart. La réglementation de la production d'information et la sensibilisation du public à son coût apparaissent dès lors comme les grands enjeux de la production d'information sur internet." Y a pas de mauvais élèves et y a pas de bons élèves, c'est à dire que globalement tout le monde va recopier " Marie-Luce Viaud" Quand le Monde sort les Panama papers (...) on observe qu'il y a à la fois une augmentation des ventes en kiosque et des ventes en ligne, mais ça se mesure sur de très gros événements " Marie-Luce ViaudEt puis avis aux cinéphiles. On reçoit Marc Olry, de Lost Films pour parler du festival Play it again qui amène " les films d'hier dans les cinémas d'aujourd'hui" jusqu'au 11 avril. Le concept ? Mettre en avant des films anciens restaurés. Chaque année, le festival en choisit une vingtaine et il y en a pour tous les goûts. Cinéma français, étranger, noir et blanc ou couleur, et même une sélection pour les enfants avec notamment Alice Comedies, un film d'animation de 1924 qui est aussi l'ancêtre des Disney. Derrière ce festival, il y a l'Association des distributeurs de films de patrimoine (ADFP) qui se spécialise dans la restauration et la réédition de films dits "de répertoire". La restauration ressemble parfois à un travail de fourmi, explique Marc Olry, et peut prendre jusqu'à un an. Cette année, le festival s'est ouvert avec un film en cours de restauration, Cyrano de Bergerac de Jean-Paul Rappeneau.  Avec Play it again, les organisateurs souhaitent proposer une sélection de leur travail pour toucher davantage de personnes : des salles qui ne diffusent pas habituellement de films anciens décident de le faire dans le cadre du festival. Résultat, on peut voir Mauvais sang de Leos Carax à Niort, Les hommes préfèrent les blondes à Biscarosse, ou Vacances à Venise à Tulle...Les films du festival Play it again sont diffusés dans 190 salles à travers la France. A Paris c'est le cinéma les Trois Luxembourg qui les propose jusqu'au 11 avril. Et comme on est gentils à radio campus Paris, on vous fait gagner des places pour le festival.
