Disney sends people to high school productions of let’s say “Beauty and the Beasts ” to make sure it follows the script. Nothing added or subtracted.

Michael Moore had a hilarious story about there being Nazis clandestinely portrayed in a mural somewhere in Disney World. Of course, the story about the cover of early “Little Mermaid” DVDs. Disney was tough on artists.
