Billy Corgan

I don't mean Walt, the person, Disney, Disney, the, the world that's been created.

I mean, without the Mary Blairs and the, and the, you know, the Mr. Gurr and, you know, there's, there's so many brilliant people in this mix and, and, and,

The one thing we do know is Walt must have had a magical ability at winding these people up and sending them off in the directions he did.

And it's also in the Handcrafted film about sort of trusting people to go in different directions and it all sort of kind of arrives at the right point.

Right.

There's a sense of destiny in that.

And I think it's beautiful that...

now with the work that you've done and, of course, you know, the restoration in many ways of your grandfather's name in the Disney story.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is focusing on who drew a mouse, you know what I mean, is like, let's call it the public's overly simple version of who gets the credit.

But if you really look, the credit's all in plain sight.

Even the early Disney stuff, it says, you know, your grandfather's name's on the cartoons.

It's not like...

He was being shoved out of the picture, but it gets complicated, of course, because with any kind of growth and maybe I'm over pitching you, but you know what I mean?

But do you agree with that kind of general assessment?

Does that sound sort of reasonably fair?

I see.

Yeah, because when I was a kid, I was born in 67.

We would watch on Sunday at the grandparents' house, The Wonderful World of Color.

I had no idea that Walt was dead.

To us as kids, he was the guy, and we didn't even know he wasn't alive.
