I wish there were a thousand stars, bells, and whistles I could attach to the title of this thread to ensure it gets everyone's attention!
I just finished watching "Walt- The Man Behind the Myth", a DVD documentary I bought on my WDW trip a few weeks ago.
I am still drying my tears! This was the BEST documentary I have ever seen on Walt Disney! I have read many books, seen many tv specials and bonus footage reels on him. But this BLEW THEM ALL AWAY!
It is narrated by Dick Van Dyke, and has interviews from his daughter, his niece and nephew, his grandchildren, his in-laws...it's spectacular! To hear the grandchildren recount the nights they slept over at Disneyland in the apartment above the firehouse! To hear their recollection of his passing! To see video never seen before of him in his family setting! Absolutely amazing!!
It also had interviews from the "nine old men" as well as various historians, etc.
I cannot stress this enough...any Disney fan should have this video! You will not regret it! I bought mine in DTD, but I see that it is also available online. It was made in 2001, and I don't know how I have missed it until now. If you have missed it too, rectify this asap!
If you like One Man's Dream, you will be absolutely astounded by this video!!:mickey:
