Short Film Showcase: Donald Duck Goes to War

Lost in the Vault

Hey kids, remember when Donald Duck fought in the Pacific Theater?

Well, Dallin and Amanda certainly do. In the first-ever Lost in the Vault Short Film Showcase, they discuss six animated shorts in which Donald Duck served in the U.S. Army during WWII. Topics discussed include Donald Duck as the American everyman, how Disney's war shorts could be more subversive than the Looney Tunes', and whether or not cartoon characters should be getting back to fighting Nazis (spoiler: the answer is yes).

Fall in for a brand new Lost in the Vault!
