Description
How are animated films produced? Who were the people behind Bugs Bunny, Felix the Cat, Betty Boop, Popeye, Mickey Mouse, and Mr. Magoo? Who dreamed up the duos of Tom and Jerry, Rocky and Bullwinkle, and Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner? Animation goes beyond Mickey Mouse and Walt Disney, with many animated features peppered with hints of sex, alcohol, drugs, and politics.
