My daughter, now 13, REFUSES (and always has) to watch Old Yella, all she knows 
is when I described the story to her when she was a toddler, and even then she 
cried and cried.
I have the little golden book at home and my daughter wont open it.
My Father, saw it as a kid, and he said to this day its the most disturbing 
movie expereince he had.

Forget CANNIBAL APOCALYPSE, try Old Yella.


And I saw Disney on TV as The Wonderful World of Disney

You're quite wrong.  The show was originally titled DISNEYLAND and aired on 
ABC-TV on
sunday evenings.  


Later, in the U.S., the Disney show was changed to THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF COLOR 
and
it aired on NBC, the network that was really pre-eminent in color telecasting.


The story of the relationship between the program Disneyland, ABC Television, 
and the construction
of the theme park Disneyland (in Anaheim) has been extensively reported in 
several Disney
biographies.

to be corrected here,,, the show was called THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY, not 
DISNEYLAND. unless there was some off the cuff show that disney sent to 
australia called DISNEYLAND.  i think that show was actually called SYDNEYLAND. 
 appropriate, i think. :)

Interesting out of that list, Rich, that OLD YELLER which we can add to it, was 
the only one I saw as a young child.
 
All the others I saw either in late teens or even later for the first time. We 
also used to see them carved up in chunks/sequences on DISNEYLAND in the early 
60s. Periodically, I get the impression that export version of DISNEYLAND was 
quite different to the US domestic one. There seemed uncanny tie-ins to 
"specials" that coincided with local Australian releases of new Disney product.

I think if you look at lots of Disney films, they have some overtly violent 
contexts

Snow White: the Witch terrified children at the time and I have 2 cousins who 
to this day have not seen the film since they were little girls and refused to 
let their children watch it when they were youngsters

Bambi: the forest fire & a number of other scenes create wailing children 
everytime it is screened

Peter Pan: death & destruction

Pinochio: oh c'mon, being swallowed by the whale in that terrifying scene makes 
kids doody their pants.

and those are just some samples.

Maybe Unka Walt really hated children?
 
I'm sure audience testing went on back then for studio releases specifically 
WDPs, and while OY is a "classic childrens film" you would think that audience 
test responses would have indicated that it was potentially a tad too traumatic 
for younger kids, especially those with a mutt at home.
 
So either Walt was cackling with glee up the back of the previews as the tots 
were reduced to wailing and sobbing, or thinking WELL, IT'S GOOD FOR CHILDREN 
TO "LEARN ABOUT LOSS"..... AND PAY ME TO DO SO. 
 
Or as another well-known producer said privately in more recent years, THERE'S 
A KID OUT THERE IN THE VALLEY WITH A DOLLAR IN HIS POCKET, AND I WANT IT.

About 2 years ago, I finally put Old Yeller on t.v. I had been telling my 
children about it for so many years and my now 11 year old is a huge movie 
buff. We had to stop it at "the" part as she was so upset. She vowed never to 
watch it again.
