Academy Award Review of Walt Disney Cartoons is a Walt Disney animated film released in the United States on May 19, 1937, for a limited time to help promote the upcoming release of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It was a collection of five Oscar-winning Silly Symphonies shorts, bridged together with title cards and a narrator.[1] Like The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, each of the cartoons had been released on their own at first before being collected together as one film. The separate cartoon shorts are now available on DVD.
Academy Award Review of Walt Disney Cartoons was re-released and updated with additional four shorts in 1966 with no narration.[1]
Both versions of the film were released in Japan on LaserDisc on June 21, 1985.[1][2]
