Between Disney's much beloved Golden and Silver eras is the 'Wartime' era, which is significantly less beloved and talked about. Virtually all of the movies in this period were collections of animated shorts, be they many in number such as Melody Time or only two not-quite-feature-length shorts, like Ichabod and Mr. Toad. But Saludos Amigos and Three Caballeros, while similar, are a bit different in design and purpose. While certainly a vehicle for shorts, both films are also a vehicle for exploring Latin America, with the first film featuring a documentary sort of approach and the latter film incorporating a very loose narrative to connect its pieces. In many ways, by modern standards both films are undeniably quaint. But that doesn't necessarily mean they're bad... so how do these things hold up, all this time later? Listen to find out!
