From The Three Caballeros to Melody Time, Disney's wartime movies deserve more attention from mainstream audiences.
The Walt Disney Company has released over sixty animated movies since Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 1937. As such, fans and critics have created seven eras to divide them based on common trends and historical moments. Their second era is referred to as the Wartime Era, which ran from 1943 to 1949
5 'The Three Caballeros' Pleased by the reception of Saludos Amigos, Walt created a follow-up film. Through the framing device of Donald's birthday, he opens numerous gifts that educate him about South America and Mexico. Alongside his friend, José, Donald meets a Mexican rooster named Panchito Pistoles .
3 'Melody Time' Once the war was over and Disney's animators were back home, Walt made plans to return to adapting fairytales and telling a single story in his animated films. He still had a few anthology films in production and intended to see them through to finance his return to form, Cinderella. For Melody Time, Walt decided to let his animators have free rein.
