The banned Disney film: SONG OF THE SOUTH

When the Disneyplus streaming portal is available all over the world, all of the studio's classic films that have already been removed from competing platforms will be available to watch. However, one film, as is already apparent in the USA, will be missing: "Song Of The South". The film was released in 1946, cartoon characters meet actors in it, the technical innovations are enormous - and there was an Oscar for the song "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah", which is still known today, and the black lead actor James Baskett was also honoured with an Academy Award. Today, the Disney company is distancing itself from this film, which is set on a 19th century plantation in Georgia - or rather, Disney is simply cowardly ducking away. The accusation is that the film portrays black people in a highly discriminatory way and glorifies their situation on the plantations. That's true, but it's even worse: the film is very transparent about how Disney's ideology basically works. But how should we deal with this delicate film heritage? More on this from Wolfgang M. Schmitt in the film analysis!
