DISNEY
ADVANCES ON BERLIN
Two Films To
Be Produced in German
BURBANK,
CALIF.—Walt Disney is perhaps closer to Berlin than the Allies. Disney
announced on August 10 that he is working on synchronization of a
German-language version of the new cartoon feature Saludos Amigos for future
release in Germany. After that project is completed, he stated work will begin
on the masterpiece Fantasia. As everything except for the introduction of that
movie is musical, the translation will be much less involved. The film already
features several musical passages from German composers, including Bach and
Beethoven. The move by Disney puts him far ahead of the rest of Hollywood,
although several studios began work on French-language versions of films even
before the D-Day invasion.
