A shame none of the larger family got involved beyond Ron Miller, but that might be expected given the internal wranglings between members of the Disney family in recent times.
From what I understand, the team who did the film specifically did not want any input from the Walt Disney Company or the Walt Disney Family Museum. It's really a shame, because that museum has such fantastic information and such a small segment of the population gets the opportunity to see it. It would have been a great springboard for their efforts. I think their intent was to launch almost a smear campaign of sorts, but even they could find only minor character flaws and what in retrospect may have been brief lapses in judgment.
I read several reviews by people who claimed the much of the information was a trumped up lie and that the interviewees words were twisted into something that fit the filmmakers' agenda. I didn't see much of that, personally. In this age where few people remain who actually knew Walt Disney, much of what we know of him is clouded by the bias of those people--whether they are pro-Disney or anti-Disney. The truth likely lies somewhere in the middle--that Walt Disney was a good man with great vision and ambition who was just as flawed as any one of us. But no matter his faults, you cannot take away the excitement and joy that he has brought to millions of people through his vision and passion. Nor can you take away the countless people that he inspired so much with his dream that they have carried on his legacy in the form of expanding the enterprise that he started.
Be good at something. It makes you valuable. Have something to bring to the table because that will make you more welcome. --Randy Pausch
