If you're familiar with Bob Moline's work in EPCOT, you'll hear shades of it all over his earlier work.

The music is so good, and it's so sad he's not around anymore.

The biggest TRON fans I know knew it would flop because of Leto and the lack of any connection to the previous movies

This particular episode would be rebroadcast 2 other times in season 2: 4/18/56 and 7/4/56. This is one of 5 missing episodes that unfortunately is not in my collection (so close to having all anthology episodes) so I had to recreate this episode by viewing the 3 P&P short subjects for context.

"The Blue Men of Morocco" is next up on our travels all about a nomadic tribe traveling thru the desert to sell their wares and camels in the city of Marrakesh. The film details their lifestyle living in the harsh Sahara Desert. 🧵

"Tiburon" would never be released in theatres so what was featured on this episode is the only footage ever shown. Next up are scenes from the upcoming release of "Sardina" that would hit theatre February 15th 1956. The tuna fishing scene is not to be missed!! 🧵

It's Disney Anthology Sunday recap time! Broadcast 70 years ago today the ultimate travel log (Disney style): People and Places-Tiburon, Sardinia, Morocco and Icebreakers. This would be the first time any of the People and Places series of films to be featured on the anthology series. 🧵

Yeah they definitely did. I have a Contemporary bag of the same vintage that's plastic too. It seems like they used plastic for larger bags, maybe?
