Disney has taught us so much through his cartoons and films. The way he makes real world problems relatable in his animations is still amazing and admirable. What really speaks is the way he portrayed women in films back then and even now. In a world…
Walt Disney was not just someone who drew cartoons for a section of a newspaper; he changed the American culture with his creativity and ideas. Walt Disney is a man who changed the way people entertain themselves. Because he inspired so many people, they strive to become who they want to be so that they can be successful, like him. I chose Walt Disney for my project because he has had a major effect on my life through his movies, cartoons, and theme parks. When I saw “Steamboat Willie” starring Mickey Mouse, I thought that it was very interesting because that was one of Disney’s very first films and that is where his career began with Mickey. Walt Disney once said, “It all started with a mouse,” but if you ask me, it did not start off with…
Walt Disney’s nine old men were a group of Walt Disney’s supervising animators who help created Walt Disney Studio’s classic animated features such as “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” onward to “The Rescuers”. The members of Disney’s Nine Old Men are Les Clark, Marc Davis, Ollie Johnston, Milt Kahl, Ward Kimball, Eric Larson, John Lounsbery, Wolfgang Reithereman and Frank Thomas. Walt Disney jokingly called this group of animators his “Nine Old Men” by referring the U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s nine Supreme Court judges and most of whom were over the age…

Throughout Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck portrays the characters as suspicious of each other and their actions, misunderstanding as they let their strongest feelings remain hidden which causes the loneliness and the gruffness of many characters that we associate with the book, as they feel that they have no one to talk to.…
On November 30, 1835, Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name, Mark Twain, was born. At the age of four, his family moved to Hannibal, a bustling town near the Mississippi River. When his father, John Clemons, died, his mother Jane became head of the household. The Clemens family was forced into years of economic struggle, which would help shape Mark’s career. Violence was a normal thing where he lived and he witnessed multiple death growing up. The town where he lived shaped many of the places described in some of his works. Twain became very well known when one of his tales about life in a mining camp, "Jim Smiley and His Jumping Frog," was printed in newspapers and magazines nationwide. In February 1870, he climbed the social…
Born to Elias and Flora Call on December 5, 1901 in Chicago Illinois, Walter "Walt" Disney later moved to Marceline, Missouri, where he began drawing and selling pictures to his neighbors, family and friends. American Experience, in a documentary episode dedicated to Walt Disney, outlines the disparity between the exuberant young Walt and his withholding, domineering father through a home movie which showed Disney and his parents’ painfully uneasy exchanges while he was interviewing them on their anniversary. Hence when Disney is quoted saying "I'm going to be everything he (his father) isn't," there's a striking frame of reference for the strict character who stirred the adult Disney to crave all the whimsicalities he was denied as a child. In 1911, his family again moved to Kansas City, where he developed a fascination with trains and got a summer job with a railroad company, selling snacks and newspapers to travelers. At that time, his love of trains seemed like a childish fixation, but it soon translated into his work through the 1928 release of “Steamboat Willie,” a short…
Disney stereotypes from a far seem to be changing for the best and leaning towards pleasing the new generations. Yet after analyzing the newer films there are still problems with stereotyping races, and dehumanizing women into fairy tale princesses. For this paper I choose to study how Disney continues to slide by and get away with racial stereotypes and comments by using just enough “good” so that many people do not notice. This essay is trying to answer the question, what scholars Old Disney and how does new Disney challenge it? First I plan on talking about older Disney paradoxes such as race stereotypes starting with older films like Dumbo and ending with the 90’s film The Lion King. Next I discuss the classic “princess” paradox which occur in Cinderella, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Beauty and the Beast, and The little Mermaid. After this I…
Mark Twain depicts various types of humor in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Satire is the first type of humor evident in the novel. Religion is the most common example of Twain’s satire, which he communicates through the character Huck Finn. Throughout the novel Twain satirizes prayer through Huck. In Chapter One, the Widow Douglas attempted to convey the importance of religion to Huck. She took out her bible and read stories of Moses to Huck. Huck was intrigued by the story of Moses and broke into a deep sweat as he waited to find out more about the biblical figure. However, once Huck learns that Moses is dead, he immediately loses interest in the stories. This example demonstrates Twain’s opposition to the blind faith found in church teachings.…
