This newfound ability, coupled with a boost of self-confidence, allows Dumbo to become a hero in the circus and to reunite with his mother. The story packs myriad emotions, from tragic sadness to triumphant joy, into 64 minutes, the shortest running time of any Disney feature film.
Bambi. The classic Disney tale tells the story of a deer who loses his mother and must find a way to survive in the world without her. We watch as Bambi makes friends, learns how to find food, survives a harsh winter, and even falls in love. The tale is timeless and the dialogue is limited.
With a running time of 124 minutes, Disney's Fantasia (1940) remains the longest of the studio's 56 animated features to date, and the only with a running time of over two hours.
You need to remain true to your story and if it takes 45 minutes then so be it. As defined by the academy of motion pictures, a short film is anything less then 40 minutes. But their is a logic to keeping a film short (more on this) and the more screen time you add to a short the less chance it has of being screened.
Summary. An accidental deletion almost erased Toy Story 2 forever. A maternity leave saved the film from being lost permanently. Despite a rush to rework the film, Toy Story 2 was a box office success and still holds a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
From the first “fully-synchronized” sound cartoon to the first fully computer generated animated feature, Disney has a long list of “firsts” in creative innovation under the company's belt.

Arguably the darkest film in the entire Disney animated canon is the 1996 film The Hunchback of Notre Dame. The movie opens with Frollo killing Quasimodo's mother and attempting to kill an infant Quasimodo before he's forced to stop. He attempts to atone for the sin of murdering Quasimodo's mother by taking the boy in.
In 1937, Walt Disney Animation Studios released its first fully animated feature film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, pioneering a new form of family entertainment.
Dumbo was released on October 23, 1941, where it was met with critical acclaim for its story, humor, visuals, and music. The film was later criticized for racist stereotyping of black people. Its accolades include an Academy Award for Best Scoring of a Musical Picture.
The story of how a Pixar employee accidentally deleted the entire Toy Story 2 film has resurfaced on twitter. In 1998, Pixar was getting ready to release Toy Story 2. The film was nearly complete and final edits were being made, but when someone hit the wrong button, the movie's files began to disappear.
Pixar producer Gayln Susman is best knowing for saving Toy Story 2 back in 1998 after another employee accidentally deleted most of the film's files when hitting a wrong command. The then technical-director thankfully had a backup copy of the film at her house after she was working from home whilst on maternity leave.
Character models, assets and nine-tenths of the effort they'd put into making Toy Story 2 a reality had accidentally vanished, but luckily one woman was able to step in and save the day.
No profanity, but characters do say "butt," "dumb," and "heiney." Also some creative insults, like "sharkhead," "beady-eyed bottom feeder," "filthy pile of pebbles," and "lying son of a..." Moana also tells the ocean that "fish pee in you."
A few mild insults: "stupid," "loser." One "hell." Parents need to know that, like all of Pixar's other films, Ratatouille includes nuanced humor (about the French, haute cuisine, food critics, and so on) and references aimed directly at adults.
A short film has an average run time of 20–40 minutes. Short films have no limitation for how short they can be. For example, some might only be a few minutes, while others might be up to an hour long.
We have taken about 200 short films that have been selected and screened at the festival. We have divided these films into four groups by running time 0-7 minutes, 8-15, 16-30, and 31-45 minutes.
A short film is basically any film that is too short to be considered a feature film. There are no set boundaries on this, although the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences defines a short film as "an original motion picture that has a running time of 40 minutes or less, including all credits".
