  • Drafting Disney for Victory: Animation, Propaganda, and Political Resistance, 1941-1942
    DRAFTING DISNEY FOR VICTORY: ANIMATION, PROPAGANDA, AND POLITICAL RESISTANCE, 1941-1942 by John Michael Gregory A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2019 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Mark Wilson, Thesis Director ______________________________ Dr. Peter Thorsheim ______________________________ Dr. David Johnson ©2019 John Michael Gregory ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT JOHN MICHAEL GREGORY. Drafting Disney for Victory: Animation, Propaganda, and Political Resistance, 1941-1942. (Under the direction of DR. MARK WILSON) History has forgotten animation, and film companies are often complicit in failing to acknowledge its influence on our social and cultural history. Walt Disney came of age in the film industry during the Golden Age of Hollywood, an era that coincided with a world stage set for war and conflict. The threat of Nazi Germany was felt both home and abroad, and the United States struggled with indecision on whether or not to support its European allies or remain isolationist. When the Second World War began, the American response was lukewarm with Lend-Lease being the only acceptable political means of interference in the European conflict. Walt Disney, struggling over lack of profits due to war-related distribution overseas, sought US Government contracts for morale and instructional films to keep his company afloat and his artists paid. Though Disney’s popularity and success in Hollywood in the late 1930s should have made him an easy sell to politicians, he was largely met with distrust over questions of cost and the future viability of animation in government use.

Looking By Donald Dewey ER G This is where Humphrey Bogart delivers the classic line to Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca (1942). at You, Kid GRAN 30 SCANDINAVIAN REVIEW SCANDINAVIAN REVIEW 31 Ingrid Bergman at 26 HAT IS THERE LEFT TO SAY ABOUT INGRID BERGMAN? Journalists and biographers and film historians have been dipping W into Bergman’s life (1915–1982) so relentlessly for so long that it is easy to forget that it wasn’t always in the public domain. The woman’s career, off and on screen, started being dissected so minutely so many decades ago that just about the only survivors from all those labors are her children and a hand- ful of actors from the already-41-year-old Murder on the Orient Express. In short, and though many of us are loath to admit it, the world of Ingrid Bergman seems to have warp-sped away from us to distances we might not have thought possible. It may not be as remote as Planet Garbo, but it is still out there, back in that century they used to call the 20th with an air of self-satisfaction making it sound like the tiniest of steps before infinity. (“My God, man, it’s the 20th century!”) There is, of course, the record of her many performances—filmed, kinescoped, taped, digitized, hologrammed, whatever technical development preserves them next.

    Touch of Evil By Michael Sragow “The A List: The National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films,” 2002 Reprinted by permission of the author Orson Welles’s “Touch of Evil” takes view- ers on a jolting ride through a seedy town on the U.S.–Mexico border, circa 1957. At every turn, the glamorous stars — Charlton Heston and Janet Leigh, as a de- termined Mexican prosecutor and his new American wife — come up against a cou- ple of charismatic grotesques: a baggy- pants crime boss named Grandi, played by Akim Tamiroff, and a tainted American police captain named Quinlan, played by Welles himself. Their jeopardy-riddled Charlton Heston grimaces at a bullying Orson Welles.
