Today we’re talking about our favorite Disney movies — “The Lion King” (1994) specifically! On this rainy/sunny midday, our co-hosts begin with a conversation on skin care that dovetails into “The Little Mermaid” (1989) — Laura’s favorite childhood Disney movie, based thematically on “Doctor Faustus” (by Christopher Marlowe). Stephen’s favorite childhood Disney film is “The Lion King,” based broadly on William Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy. Our co-hosts analyze this Disney animated classic through the lens of Shakespeare’s “Hamlet,” rules of monarchal succession, and zoology. How is Nala like and unlike Ophelia? How is Simba’s journey like and unlike Hamlet’s? Why is Scar even at Pride Rock? Full of fun facts for fans of theater, Disney, and large cats, join us for our first Disney dissection!
