About this listen
In this episode, we take on one of Disney’s strangest and most serious films, Victory Through Airpower. Made in the middle of World War II, the movie mixes animation, live action, and straight military argument to push a very specific idea about how the war should be fought.
We break down what the film is trying to say, why Walt Disney chose to make it, and how it was meant to influence public opinion and military thinking. Along the way, we talk about the animation, the tone shift from cartoons to lectures, and how well the message comes across to a modern audience.
