See? That's the diff, I guess. Since I'm still new or renewing my Disney interest, so much is new to me. I can see Alex's point that seeing the films back to back can be harder. Of course, they never were intended to be, but I found it interesting from an academic standpoint to see the progression. I would have liked, if I am going to bitch, to have seen more of a spread between 1929 and 1935. Flowers & Trees was nice, but Musicland was just terrific.

Again, since so much was new, I enjoyed the panel discussion. Does anyone have comments on Gabler's bio of Walt? That was not one I picked up this weekend.

I first became aware of Gabler's biography almost a year ago when Tim O'Day told me a new comprehensive biography was on its way and he thought it was likely to be the best Walt bio ever written.

That's enough of an endorsement for me. I was supposed to review the book for MousePlanet but the reviewer's copy we were supposed to get never made it to me so I haven't actually read it yet.

Okay, I'll add it to my list. I probably should have, but I overspent at the Booksmith table already....and had to schlep for the rest of the day.
