It was interesting until it addressed Song of the South and regurgitated all of the same old claims about it supposedly being a racist depiction and demeaning and blah blah blah. The next paragraph half-heartedly defended the film, but at the end it's rather obvious where the author's sentiments really lay. Lame. As for Walt, he was a man of the fifties. It was a different time. I get tired of these biopics of historical people which apply today's standards and ways of thought to people who lived in a different time. It's not exactly historical revisionism, but it's annoying.
