This Disney land was always a world so rich and rigid that it was ripe for satire. In 1954 Harvey Kurtzman's Mad comic book burlesqued the Disney cartoon world, with its talking animals wearing three-fingered gloves, its ducks in sailor suits but no pants, and a mouse named Minnie "with lipstick and eyelashes and a dress with high-heeled shoes; a mouse, ten times bigger than the biggest rat." This was mild stuff compared with a 1967 parody that Mad Alumnus Wallace Wood drew for Realist magazine. In the cheerfully scabrous "Disneyland Memorial Orgy," Walt's creatures behaved...
Signet member Ellen J. Harvey '89 says the group could be a useful addition to the community. "I always think the more the merrier," says Harvey, adding that she was "sure that people could belong to both." Harvey said she did not believe competition would be a problem...

The camera pans 360 degrees around the room and back to the soldiers and the speaker, who is now revealed as a Chinese specialist in mind control.

The performances are daring and assured, especially Lansbury's holy terror of Momism and Harvey's snide, pathetic pawn, brainwashed by both KGB AND CIA. And the movie's theory of endemic political corruption, which read as seditious in 1962, now feels like the sweet breath of reason. Few movies attempt to anatomize a whole sick society, to dissect the mortal betrayals of country, friend, lover and family; fewer films...
