Fun Film Fact 07/26/11

During the first Golden Age of Disney animated films, Walt Disney nick-named his core group of animators the "Nine Old Men." The Nine Old Men were the main animators on every Disney film from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) to The Rescuers (1977). This group of men is credited with refining the basic rules of hand-drawn animation that are still used to this day.
