On this episode of ID The Future from the archive, John West, Associate Director of the Center for Science & Culture and author of Walt Disney and Live Action, talks about how science is portrayed in Walt Disney’s films and theme parks.

John West explores these interests both in Disney’s exhibits and his film works. Dig Deeper
