It’s the life cycle of a vital pop art object and consummate commodity — a quintessential tale of the 20th century, complete with Andy Warhol quote.

The access to veteran Disney animators and work from different stages of the process is unparalleled... I challenge anybody to spend 93 minutes with Mickey Mouse without smiling frequently.

The evolution of the little mouse who could glosses over the domination of Disney as a corporation, the gluttony of its toy manufacturing, and the growing emptiness of Mickey. Perhaps Mickey is an endearing piece of iconography because hes a blank slate.
