About this listen
What bizarre technique did Disney's artists use to make Tinker Bell glow? And what disturbing story elements did Disney change from the original novel when they created their feature film?
On this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk, we follow the second start to the right as we explore the fascinating art, history, animation, and development of Disney’s Peter Pan animated feature film. Along the way, we discover some bizarre truths about the original novel, find some unique connections between Peter Pan and another iconic Disney attraction, and hear some behind-the-scenes stories of how this film was created. This episode also includes excerpts from a 1953 document from Walt Disney explaining why Peter Pan was so dear to his heart and what it meant to him on a personal level.
Kate gives us some insight into how Tinker Bell was created, Kirk explains the origin of the Lost Boys, and we take a moment to reflect on the similarities between two creative men and what a boy who didn’t want to grow up meant to them.
