This is an absolutely amazing and detailed look at the life of Floyd Norman. From his family's move to California, his military service, his early pioneering work at Disney Studios. This film traces the highs and lows of his life and career. It addresses the challenges of racism and ageism. It shows his admirable talent and perseverance. It's a journey through history, of a man's life, Disney Studios, the film industry, the Watts riots. I found it to be very educational. I have been a lifelong fan of Disney Studios, and I had no clue how much time, talent, and work goes into animation. I have a new appreciation for the film industry.
