This is the second episode in the "Art of Animation" trilogy. It features the now famous "Soup Sequence" that was cut out of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. New animation featuring Mickey Mouse was also filmed for this show. Produced in color, it's one of the few shows that carried over in reruns to The Wonderful World of Color. (edit)
