Thank you for watching! / @itsbiographer
Walt Disney is undoubtedly a key figure in the history of cinema. His biography is an incredible story, according to which more than one film was made. His characters Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Cinderella, Snow White and others have become iconic. Walt Disney came a long and long way before he founded The Walt Disney Company and released a cartoon about Mickey Mouse. How did Walt Disney become who we know him, how did he create Mickey Mouse, and do we even know everything about Walt Disney? Many interesting facts about the biography of Walt Disney are stubbornly hidden by the Walt Disney Company, so that it does not undermine the reputation of the The Walt Disney Company. For example, the facts that Walt Disney was a sexist, anti-semitist and very strict boss. In our new video, we will talk about the biography of Walt Disney, from his birth to his death.

Walt Disney was a very mercurial person. He was the heart that beat in that studio. He came up with all the ideas for all his projects. He grew up with a very strict father and grew up to be very strict go get exactly what he wanted.

Personally, i think its very silly to judge people born such a long time ago with modern standards of ''acceptable behavior''... As far as its documented, the guy never raped, assaulted, hit, or killed anyone, so i think is pretty reasonable to consider him a passable human being, dispite all the obviusly problematic ideas he, and at least 95% of white people back then had. Dude was a phenomenal genius, who worked his ass off to bring joy to people's lives, thats the way he deserves to be remembered.

Absolutely! The fist rule of writing is "write about what you know." There was a social structure then that segregated certain types of work by gender all across society. And let's not forget that there was segregation and discrimination in hiring according to race as well. The gender discrimination changed, largely due to when women had to fill roles held by men who had to go off to war. Now women can do that. And the Racial discrimination was supposedly overcome through acts of The Civil Rights Movement, although we sometimes wonder if the discrimination still is practiced in some cases. I fear that too many people are given opportunities to voice their "opinions" without having a total understanding of social history or the subject matter they write about and post here. While there were many unfair things about life decades ago, we still have them today. Instead of twisting this subject into a specious excuse to bash Walt Disney for a social structure of his time,--and matter that happened before you were born, it would be a positive action if you addressed current issues of unfairness.

"He and his wife," _not_ "him and his wife." The death of proper English is almost as egregious as the revisionist history appearing in videos like this. I'm very curious about the "David Silverman" featured in this video. I've never heard of him, nor has any Disney biographer I've read (and I've read nearly all of them). Nor had any early Disney employee I have known. _If_ he existed, he didn't visit "St. Petersburg" in Russia during the Disney era, because during that period St. Petersburg was known as Leningrad. Soviet Russia was a Communist country at the time, There _is_ a famous David Silverman associated with _The Simpsons_ animated series, but he had no relation to Walt Disney, and was only eight-years-old when Walt died. I"m guessing the narrator meant David "Hilberman," not Silverman. Hilberman _was_ a member of the Communist Party, and was partially responsible for organizing the walkout mentioned in this video. Moreover, while Art Babbitt wasn't a Communist (but a decent human being), several other union organizers did apply communist tactics in organizing against Disney (as recorded in now-pubic FBI documents of the period). William Pomerance, another Disney-hater, and the Screen Cartoonist Guild's business manager, was also a well-known Communist. So, it appears, Disney had a point about the unionization of his business, the organizers’ affiliation with Soviet Communism. He wasn't fantasizing after all. Walt Disney, like every human being, had character flaws, but the suggestion that he was motivated by personal greed in this video is not only wrong, it makes me wonder if the writer actually read anything about the man other than online dribble. Here's another fact, you can't believe everything you read on Wikipedia. Read some actual biographies. Neal Gabler’s _Walt Disney - A Triumph of American Imagination_ is the best of them published so far. In point of fact, Walt Disney actually owed money to bankers for much of his adult life, and his brother Roy was barely able to keep the company afloat because Walt invested every dollar earned on innovation and paying his top creative talent, rather than on himself. Disney never lived in a mansion, rarely left the country unless on business, and didn't invest in lavish cars, yachts, aircraft, or the like. Disney didn't dislike women, either, but pre-WWII, men were almost exclusively the breadwinners in American families, so they were typically paid more by _all_ employers. Walt Disney never said women couldn't be artists, either. In fact, his wife, Lillian, _was_ one of the artists employed by his studio when they met, and she was never, as this video indicates, his "assistant." Walt Disney did not "escape" to South America. He went there on behalf, and at the request of, the US government as a goodwill ambassador. Walt Disney also did not, as suggested here, put the blame on David Hilberman (not Silverman) for the walkout and Union, and did not have a serious impact on Hilberman's post-Disney professional life. I could continue pointing out the factual (and grammatical) errors in this video, but have neither the time nor inclination to do so. I hope, however, that "Biographer"s" other videos make a little more effort to get it right.

I came directly to the comments before watching for this very reason; it just sounded too suspicious to me. It takes time to set the the record straight by people like you, who have taken the time to do so. It would be interesting to know what other errors you caught; might even be worth making a video of your own, and worth watching, if the interest ever strikes you. The younger generations are likely the ones who would miss a lot of these things from not knowing of the changes in social climate from Walt's years until now and from knowing little to nothing about Walt Disney's life. This is a good example of how the masses are inundated with false news and re-written history, and exactly what purveyors of this type of media are counting on to gain the high number of views. It's sad.

I wouldn't call him racist, sexist or anti semetic because when you look at the era he was alive, he was a lot more progressive than those around him. He was one of the only companies to give women prominent and lead roles in the creative department, some of his head animators were black, he was one of the only business owners willing to pay black actors and women fair wages, and some of his most prominent music creators he hired for most of his films were jewish. That's not to say the practices back then are viable now, but when looking into his history and looking at how society was back then, he was definitely one of the better individuals.

Walt Disney came inside the ship at that time.For me, he was more exciting to meet than the ride itself!

How was he a “very troubled man”?

@RayPointerChannel 2 жыл бұрын

@@IrishTexan09 Walt Disney went through several cycles of nearly facing bankruptcy over the decades, having lost money on some films, and making up for it on others. He was "troubled" about keeping his organization going and moving forward. His most profitable period came during the post World War II era of social reconstruction as the American economy saw substantial growth with the increase of Capitalism and materialism. People were hoping to create a better world for their children, and modern conveniences made life better for these parents who grew up during The Great Depression. And it was during the years of The Depression that Walt Disney's name was an inspiration. So it was only natural that the Disney name would be seen as a family-friendly brand, which it became. And THAT is largely why he was linked to children, who were brought to his movies and allowed to see his television shows because the parents liked them, too.

The current generation has anger issues that they can't define. They resent those of accomplishment who lived in a time when the opportunities were there to succeed. In this, they are jealous of that success and in their jaded reasoning, they think there is something false about these people and their accomplishments simply because they lack those abilities. Anyone who accomplished things in this world has always had to go up against opposition. In the process, someone is not going to like what one does to make something happen or how they did it. While there is something to be said about how someone accomplishes things, so long as no one was harmed in the process, that person should be held in high esteem for what he or she accomplished in spite of the odds. Life is not always easy. And doing anything of great magnitude is not easy. So those who are so quick to tear down those of accomplishment are not doing anything of merit themselves. The reason being is that they just don't have the ability, the strength, the courage, intelligence, and dare I say TALENT to do the same or better.

The same has been said about every person of accomplishment. It is a difficult and complicated state being a Human Being who is beyond the ordinary. In the process, these unusual people are targets for both admiration and jealousy. Those who focus of the faults of accomplished people fail to realize their frustrations in trying to achieve. The detractors also do not consider the challenges in trying to get others to understand the realizations of unusual, creative people. They were "thinking outside of the box" long before that expression was coined. And in many ways because they marched to the beat of a different drum, it was hard for others to shift their own beat and their thinking. That, in a sense of part of the problem. But afterward, the results spoke for themselves. History has proven that repeatedly.

The families of the Sherman brothers Robert/Richard, and Disneys first black cartoonist and executive- Floyd Norman, would certainly attest to this fact.

Growing up in the 80's - my love for Disney is the art in the animation and not of the man - although without him, his innovative risk taking and imaginative ideas, we would not have had it in the first place. Thank you for all of that information. My favourite movie is actually Beauty and the Beast, for it's first time 2D animation of coming down from a ceiling, watching the 2 characters dance which had never been done before in the history of animation. It was beautiful watching that on the big screen. Disney has the ability to make you laugh and cry in one sitting, whilst telling a story, that usually has some moral fibre to it, such as Thumper in Bambi "If you can't say something nice, don't say nuffin at all" Pinocchio as well, with watching out for temptation, not telling lies, stranger danger, and listening to a parent/guardian that has your best interests at heart. There is value in these stories and to anyone who wishes to "cancel" because they are offended, well - think on this - it was a different time then and if it's the self righteous Christian types, even Jesus threw tables. Peace to all, no cancelling anything because there is history in the stories.

I've been an avid animation aficionado since my very first movie theater experience, an early '50s re-release of "Snow White". I saw every one of his animated features in a theater. "Pinocchio" remains one of my top favorite films of all time. My admiration of Disney himself has become tainted by some of the revelations about his personality that have come to light, but nothing can detract from my view of the artists who made those drawings come to life. I especially appreciate the achievements of Ub Iwerks - in fact, the first cartoons I remember seeing on tv were the Ub Iwerks "Flip the Frog" cartoons.

This is literally the most basic and poorly researched biography I've seen on KZfaq, not to mention, selective and a mess when it comes to structure. This is not the whole truth about Walt disney. This isn't even a fraction of it. For a channel that's been putting out "biographies", this is an insult to anyone who's ever actually done their proper research about not even the company, but the man. Brace yourself, dear comment reader, for I am about to fact check this entire video. 1. The owl incident was indeed an accident that scarred Walt for the rest of his life. He wouldn't even allow his gardener to poison squirrels. 2. It was NOT Walt's idea to sell the helmets. It was a Georgian that asked him to use his artistic skills to turn it into a sniper helmet. Walt then sent the money he got from the sales AND his salary to his mother. 3. Ub Iwerks was NOT the sole creator of Mickey Mouse. He was the one that finalized his design. The idea of Mickey was still Walt's. 4. Walt was not the one that drew up the contract that cost him Oswald. That was Charles Mintz. It wasn't until after the head of Universal tasked the Disney BROTHERS Studio to come up with a rabbit that the character was copyrighted and production began. Walt lost control of Oswald because Universal was the legal copyright owner and would continue to make the shorts with Walt's OWN TEAM OF ANIMATORS without him for less money. 5. The name Mortimer never saw the screen. The story of how Lillian suggested Mickey is so famous, I am genuinely surprised how you managed to screw that up. 6. Walt did NOT tell Lillian to come to Oscars because "she jinxed him." She loved going to the ceremonies with him. Instead, you are trying to twist what happened in 1954 to better suit your garbage clickbait thumbnail. The real story is that Walt told Lillian not to come with him because he didn't think he was going to win anything that night, when in reality, he ended up winning four Oscars in the same evening. If anything, she was furious that she dildn't come with him so he had to sleep in his studio for the night. It had nothing to do with sexism. 7. Your claim that Disney didn't let his own daughters watch his cartoons is also one of the biggest loads I've ever heard. He kept his cartoons out of his house because he didn't want his work life to surround him at home. Instead, he would entertain his daughters himself and make them laugh with books. Even then, he had his own screening room in his house to review his company's work. His daughter's laughter was one of his favorite sounds. If you're going to try and make things up, you need to get better at it. 8. Walt was very easy going around women at home as evidenced by the relationships he had with his mother, sister, aunt, his sisters in law, and even his own housekeeper. Hell, even all of his pets were female. His communications with old girlfriends were never derogatory either. You seem to emphasize this later on in the video. How odd. 9. Walt didn't ban female animators being hired because of pregnancy concerns. Rather, he regulated women's work to the inking and painting department because it required delicate hand work, something he felt that the men lacked. If anything, he discouraged any kind of in house flirting from the women OR the men. 10. Walt did NOT only hire married women, nor were they merely regulated to the roles of assistants. Even people who started out as secretaries would later go on to work on motion pictures and printed publications. Only early on in the studio did he not want people within the studio to marry EACH OTHER, but this stipulation was eventually dropped. There was a strict harassment policy at the studio as well as anti-discrimination standards that HE put in place. A 1939 Memo reads as follows: "Departmental conduct. Attention has been called to the rather gross language that is being used by some members of the In-betweening Department in the presence of some of our female employees. It has always been Walt's hope that the Studio could be a place where girls can be employed without fear of embarrassment or humiliation. Your cooperation in this matter will be appreciated." Walt was also famously quoted as saying: "if a woman can do the work as well, she is worth as much as a man." And "the girl artists have the right to expect the same chances for advancement as men, and I honestly believe that they may eventually contribute something to this business that men never would or could." In other words, get the hell out of here with that Sexist/Bigot bullcrap.

11. WALT DISNEY DID NOT EVER CHEAT ON HIS WIFE. Especially not with Delores Del Rio. SHE had an affair with ORSON WELLES. At this point, you are straight up making things up. For someone who likes to claim that the guy only hired married women only to cheat himself when in fact both statements are false doesn't make you look good and I sincerely fear for anyone who actually believes the garbage that you are spewing. Do you want to know why there's no published record of a Disney/del Rio affair? Because it didn't happen! 12. You cannot blame a miscarriage on Walt. That js literally one of the stupidest things, next to the above. Walt literally had his 1932 house built to raise his family. At one point, the guy even wanted so much as 10 kids. 13. Do not perpetuate the notion that Disney characters lose their mothers because of what happened to Flora. The stories that Walt and Roy adapted had that in their source material as it was. Even as early as Snow White. 14. While Walt did grossly mishandle the animator strike, he did not view the employees are so easily disposable. Everyone who applied for Disney had to go through a rigorous training process, some of whom didn't even make it. 15. David Silverman was an animator that was born in 1957 and worked on the Simpsons. You are thinking of David HILBERMAN. It is incredible how you couldn't even get one simple yeah crucial detail like that correct. David, actually was a communist. So Walt singling him out was based on that, not his Jewish heritage. 16. I find it funny that not only do you seem incapable of even getting names, let alone facts straight, but you also pretend not to dare to go into the territory of the accusations of Walt's anti-semitism, ( which by the way, was also made up) yet here you are calling it a fact that the company is stubbornly trying to hide? Since you're too cowardly to tackle it, I will do it for you. 17. Art Babbitt, who was also Jewish, hated Disney intensely. Yet with all of the rumors he tried to start, even he admitted that he never experienced any kind of anti-Semitic behavior from Walt. So if you don't want to take the words of the Jewish people that work for Walt that had good relationships with him such as Joe Grant or the Sherman brothers, but that coming from aren't bad it should tell you something. One of Walt's most famous lawyers was also Jewish. I name even more Jewish employees at one personally hired, but you probably would mix up their names too. 18. You act as if Walt's fascination with trains caught up with him in the '50s. I'm surprisingly, your summation that trains were LED well to build Disneyland is once again wrong. Even Disney novices know the story of how Walt conceived a theme park. He was sitting on a bench, watching his daughters on American round and decided that there should be a place where both children and adults can have fun. And that so called craziness is what led to the ambition of Mickey mouse, snow white, and all his other accomplishments. Yet you try and spend it as a bad thing. 19. Your timeline jumping is ridiculously nauseating. 20. The castle in Disneyland is Sleeping Beauty's, not Snow White's. The fact that you can't even get that right makes me question what easy details you flubbed in your other videos.

The Robin Hood you showed was not the animated version. That didn't come out until well after Walt Disney's passing. If you're going to showcase the live action one, maybe get the proper footage? 24. Walt's daughter's name was Diane, not Diana. Your inability to get names right is downright laughable at this point. 25. For a so-called biography, you sure do seem to like to leave out crucial details, such as how Disney died. When investigating an old Polo injury, the doctors found that he had lung cancer. It's all spent the last month of his life planning the Florida project, including Epcot, which Defunctland did an incredible video on. Far more reputable than likes of this channel at any rate. It's time jumping alone is enough to make an editor keel over.

Footnotes to your "interesting facts" 26. The Sherman Brothers were Jewish. Richard Sherman has gone on record saying that Walt treated them like the sons he never had. In addition, won't fired a lawyer who spoke ill of minorities, particularly them. 27. You better believe that Walt was an awesome father. One of the best gifts he ever gave his daughters was a tiny little play cottage in their backyard for Christmas. What dad would build an entire theme park just so he could hang out with his kids? 28. The lamp in the window of Walt's apartment above the fire station was turned on whenever I want was there. After he died, the lamp was shut off, but was mysteriously turned back on. 29. Thelma Howard was considered to be part of the Disney family and was also one of the Walt's biggest influences at home. 30. Roy E Disney was quoted as saying "if you asked a hundred people to write down a hundred things about Walt Disney, you would get a hundred different Walt Disneys." You're damn right he was complex. In many ways, he was a walking contradiction. He was a guy who had one foot in the past and one foot in the future. A man of his time was also forward thinking. A Republican with Democratic tendencies. A a grown man with a heart of a child. An ambitious dreamer and and a ruthless businessman. But sexist and a racist / antisemite? No. People often compare Walt to Steve Jobs. You've got two guys that want to make the world better but also have a terrible temper. I admittedly don't know much about Steve jobs, but based on the the books I've read, the documentaries I've seen and the one-on-one talks I've had with animators and imagineers who actually knew walls, I've come to learn this: Walt Disney was by no means a saint or a perfect human being. It was mature in some aspects and childish and others. He can even make you feel really great or really bad. But at the end of the day, he didn't care if you were a man or woman, black, white, jewish, asian, or even gay. If you did your job and you didn't well, then not only did you have a place at the studio, you had Walt's favor, even if he didn't outright tell you.

I find it interesting that your thumbnail, your description and your narration at the beginning seems to act like you are trying to deliver a tell all piece, and yet not only do you fail to get basic facts correct, towards the end of the video, your interesting facts and praise of the man seem to contradict one of the whole reasons why you even put this video out. While I initially agree with your ending statements, this video is essentially a joke. The time jumping is all over the place, your evidence or lack thereof of certain subjects is easily disproven with a quick Google search and you can't even be bothered to get certain names right. At the end of the day, this is not the "whole truth" or even the whole story of Walt Disney. I literally have a book from when I was 12 that does a better job of covering his life, his flaws, (the ones that actually existed by the way, not the ones you made up,) and what his employees thought of him than this. hell, even documentaries that were TRYING to defame him had better attempts at proof than this. If anything, this whole video is a messy attempt to try and justify the clickbait you put in the thumbnail. I realize this is how you get views, and I realize that my entire comment thread is the most asinine ever posted on youtube, but when you can't even find evidence to back it up and you have to make it up instead? Not only is it immoral, but the overall video shouldn't even have been made in the first place.

I find it funny that not only do you seem incapable of even getting names, let alone facts straight, but you also pretend not to dare to go into the territory of the accusations of Walt's antisemetism, ( which by the way, was also made up) yet here you are calling it a fact that the company is stubbornly trying to hide? Since you're too cowardly to tackle it, I will do it for you. 17. Art Babbitt, who was also Jewish, hated Disney intensely. Yet with all of the rumors he tried to start, even he admitted that he never experienced any kind of antisemetic behavior from Walt. So if you don't want to take the words of the Jewish people that work for Walt that had good relationships with him such as Joe Grant or the Sherman brothers, but that coming from aren't bad it should tell you something. One of Walt's most famous lawyers was also Jewish. I name even more Jewish employees at one personally hired, but you probably would mix up their names too. 18. You act as if Walt's fascination with trains caught up with him in the '50s. I'm surprisingly, your summation that trains were what led Walt to build Disneyland is once again wrong. Even Disney novices know the story of how Walt conceived a theme park. He was sitting on a bench, watching his daughters on a roundabout and decided that there should be a place where both children and adults can have fun. And that so called craziness is what led to the ambition of Mickey mouse, snow white, and all his other accomplishments. Yet you try and spin it as a bad thing. 19. Your timeline jumping is ridiculously nauseating. 20. The castle in Disneyland is Sleeping Beauty's, not Snow White's. The fact that you can't even get that right makes me question what easy details you flubbed in your other videos.

Putting anything negative at all, let alone "sexist" in the thumbnail is the most disrespectful thing I think you could do to in his memory. Walt was sent without wings, so that no one would know he was an angel.

It's amazing how different your perception is given the fact he demonstrated be exact opposite of how you are making him out to be watch the interviews with the employees my my goodness
