I really want to watch this documentary called The Boys: The Sherman Brothers’ Story. It’s about the song-writing duo Richard and Robert Sherman who ended up composing many of the classic Disney songs that many of us grew up with. The pair were legendary in their field and this new documentary takes a look at their craft, their relationship with Disney, and their relationship with each other over the years.
As far as I know, the film has already been released in select theaters and won’t be seeing a worldwide release anytime soon mainly because of its appeal to Disney buffs only (rather than larger audiences in general). In any case, I would love to see this film and get a sense of how some of the songs that I grew up with came to be.
Disney doesn’t understand new media so they aren’t letting me embed the film’s trailer from YouTube, so you’ll have to go here to watch it.
