Reframing Disney: Mickey Mouse Monopoly

SPECIAL GUEST: DR. CHYNG SUN, WRITER AND PRODUCER
12:30 PM, MYERS AUDITORIUM, MCCOMSEY BUILDING

Mickey Mouse Monopoly explores how Disney films frame perceptions of the world.  "A daring and disturbing look at Disney's power to shape mass culture. Anyone who cares about children and commercial culture should see it, but get ready for the urge to cover your eyes as Mickey Mouse Monopoly chips away at one of America's favorite icons and leaves you with nothing but the ugly truth."

Presentation and discussion by Dr. Chyng Sun, Master Teacher of Media Studies at McGhee Liberal Arts School of Continuing and Professional Studies (NYU) and producer and writer of the film. Free and open to the public.
