All That Heaven Allows (1955)
. User Comments: Disney was never so magical - Sirk polishes weepy romance to an exquisite gloss User Rating: 7.4/10 (1, 375 votes) Cast overview, first billed only: .... | 4 out of 9 people found the following comment useful:- Disney was never so magical - Sirk polishes weepy romance to an exquisite gloss , 17 January 2004 Author: from Western New York Douglas Sirk's All That Heaven Allows could stand as a lesson about how, in gifted hands, movies can surmount and surpass their source material, elevating the routine into the rhapsodic. But from his opening shot Sirk creates a dreamy, storybook world, so Disney-pretty that he might as well have started with `Once upon a time....' Swirling downward from a church steeple in a New England autumn, he shows us an affluent enclave just a commuter-train trip away from New York. Never was Disney so magical

Allwatchers Spotlight - Mary Poppins
. " --Kevin Marley, Resident Mary Poppins Scholar "Set in turn of the century London, this 1964 Disney classic introduces us to the Banks' of #17 Cherry Tree Lane. The seemingly functional white collar family is headed by husband and father George Banks (played by Oscar deserved Disney veteran actor David Tomlinson)who treats his wife and children more like the trophies of an accomplished man than a cherrished and adored part of his life. In 1964, this Disney film's combination of live action and animation, other special effects, and lovely songs by Richard and Robert Sherman -- all to support a story taken from the books of P.L. Certainly, “Mary Poppins” is one of Walt Disney's most popular productions

Kinoeye: Suspiria
ademic analysis by Linda Schulte-Sasse.
Vol 2 Issue 11 10 June 2002 KINOEYE E-MAIL UPDATES ARCHIVES COUNTRY ARCHIVES SEARCH HORROR The "mother" of all horror movies Dario Argento's Suspiria (1977) In this multi-layered examination of Argento's undisputed magnum opus, Linda Schulte-Sasse analyses the use of gothic spaces and sly references to fascism and the film's eligibility for being "Disney's hidden reverse." Dario Argento has been called the "Italian Hitchcock" and the "Visconti of Violence." Perhaps, but if we must pin a catchy canonical label to Argento, my vote would go to "Disney's hidden reverse, " and Suspiria (1977) is the best reason why. Like Disney, Argento has no interest in realism whatsoever; Suspiria is self-consciously stylised, artificial and, as the first victim will remark in a kind of meta-commentary, "so absurd, so fantastic."] The characters are not psychologically developed, but correspond with folkloric types]: a protagonist on a quest by which she will lose her innocence; helper figures who show the way; and a malevolent maternal trio composed of dance instructor Miss Tanner (Alida Valli), administrator Madame Blanc (Joan Bennett), ] the whiteness of whose name stands in ironic contrast to the "Black Queen" of witchcraft, Helene Marcos, a 19th-century Greek immigrant and now the school's elusive "Headmistress." In a conscious if ironic tribute to Disney, Suspiria is about intense color as much as it is about anything; Argento has commented that "we were trying to reproduce the color of Walt Disney's Snow White ; it has been said from the beginning that Technicolor lacked subdued shades, was without nuances—like cut-out cartoons."] Suspiria is about sound as well, overlaid with a repetitive, frantic and compelling musical soundtrack by the rock group Goblin, whose sound has become a hallmark of some key Argento films
Internet Movie Database: Santa Clause 2, The
. It just made natural sense for the Walt Disney Company to return with a sequel. The Santa Clause 2 was originally slanted for release in 2001 but the executives at Disney became aware that sequels to moderately old films won't automatically become the same hit as the original after 102 Dalmatians flopped in 2000 thanks in part to The Grinch. Look for hidden Disney jokes and even a few Buzz Lightyear lines slipped into the story
