Academy Award's Shorts

The Academy Award Review Of Walt Disney Cartoons SF058-1716

Date released: 11/25/90, Bilingual, CLV.


Released theatrically on May 19th, 1937.  This was really Disney's first feature film, 7 months before Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs!  It originally contained all of Disney's Academy Award winning shorts up to that point (from 1932-1936).  New "Oscar" title and end cards were created with narration before each cartoon (see details here).  It was updated in 1966, adding the next 4 Academy Award shorts (unfortunately stopping before Der Fuehrer's Face from 1943).  This is the updated version, with the original 5 shorts on side 1 with narration, and the last 4 shorts on side 2 without narration.
