Description

BSXDG0134

Includes Digital Booklet

Buysoundtrax Digital presents an EP of the original soundtrack from the 1999 documentary film, THE HAND BEHIND THE MOUSE: THE UB IWERKS STORY featuring music by Louis Febre.

THE UB IWERKS STORY is a documentary on the life of the under-appreciated animator Ub Iwerks, who played a major role in the creation of Mickey Mouse.

Although Walt Disney was the public face of the animation studio that bore his name, much of the behind-the-scenes work was done by head animator Ub Iwerks. This biography by Iwerks’ granddaughter, filmmaker Leslie Iwerks, details the animator’s many contributions to Disney’s studio, including creating the first cartoon superstar, Mickey Mouse, and perfecting the process that merges animation and live-action film, which went on to become a staple of Disney’s film and TV work.
