Bonus Feature Highlights:

  • Special supplementary footage has been added to the DVD release, mostly interview footage not seen in the main feature. Some of these feature people not seen at all in Walt (such as Fess Parker, Mary Costa, Ilene Woods and Walt’s longtime secretary Lucille Martin) while others featured expanded footage of such Disney greats as Ollie Johnson, Frank Thomas, Dick Van Dyke and Dean Jones.
  • Also included is a brief ‘making of’ featurette and individual looks at the location visits and home videos used in the film, narrated by Diane Disney Miller. All the supplements are pure icing on the cake for this DVD, a must have for all true Disney fans.

Toon Talk Rating: A+
