"Marc Eliot has, as any good biographer would, done extensive research into the life of America's epitomized family man. And, what he found was not pretty. I feel that this book is both wildly underrated and unfortunately under-read. Eliot offers us an alternative to the reality that us Americans grew up with, a reality that allows for only one possibility: Disney is great, Disney is good. We have been duped into believing that this man was a loving, fatherly, genius that was more patriotic and more committed to the American family than any president has ever been. But, what we need to take into consideration is that everybody has their faults, even the voice of America's favorite mouse. I think that everyone would do well to at least read the Author's opening note, which sums up the arguments that he presents in his text. Not only does the biography reveal the darker side of Walt, it unearths the shadows that Hollywood's historians have been hiding for decades, including McCarthyism, anti-semitism, mob ties, and the exploitation of both the average cartoonist and the average cartoon producer. Although I have not finished this book, I would say that it is definitely worth a look."
"He's not kryogenically frozen and was a really difficult person. I still love him....even if he did make his animators timeclock out when they got up to sharpen their pencils."
