WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1943 "FANTASIA" I§ FEATURE NOW AT - CAPITOL THEATRE Already there is tremendous curi- osity about Walt Disney’s “Fan- tasia,” coming to the Capitol Thea-| tre tonight. Few people seem to| know what it is about, or how to| describe it—but those who have Wt fD'LAn?.niA INCOMPARABLE herent, or trip their tongue.over the wonders of this revolutionary picture. Usually such explanations wind up with a firmly stated, “You've just got to see it—that's all!”, a judgment borne out originally by the critic of Esquire Magazine, who wrote the same comment—"it can- not be described, it must be seen.” But it has drama, comedy, and unremitting interest—above all, in-’ terest—entertainment. The reader can be staggered by la few statistics, for instance. “Fan- tasia” won three Motion Picture Academy Awards, including the coveted Irving Thalberg Award, the | highest honor the motion picture industry gives. “Fantasia” cost more than $2,- 200,000 to create. The Disney ar- tists drew more than 600,000 cellu- loid drawings and 1,500 back- grounds, not counting hundreds of preliminary sketches.
