Destino: A cartoon short by Disney, and Dali Posted: 5 months ago by Bingo
In 1946, artist Salvador Dali and Walt Disney became collaborators, and set to work on a short film called Destino. The project was abandoned with less than 20 seconds of film shot, but six decades later Disney artists completed the film using Dali's original storyboards. The result is easily the strangest thing to come out of the Disney studios since... Well, probably ever.
