"The world is a carousel of color / Wonderful, wonderful color..."
The Holy Trinity of Disney Animation eras are finally upon us (though we also include the "Revival"). In Part 1, Ray and I discuss and rank Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, and Lady and the Tramp. Any film that features a female character's name in the title is our insta-fave! Nevertheless, join us on this "Bella... Giorno," won't you?
