‘Saludos Amigos’ / ‘The Three Caballeros’

Now, not many people think about Donald Duck’s adventures with Brazilian parrot Jose Carioca and Mexican rooster Panchito Pistoles (if they do it’s probably in relation to their appearance in the Mexico pavilion at EPCOT), but there’s a terrific movie to be mined from their adventures. Instead of a straightforward remake, it would be fascinating to see a dramatization of Walt Disney’s adventures in South America during the beginning of World War II. It was a hugely important trip for both the man and the studio, as seen in the terrific documentary "Walt & El Grupo," and would make a heck of a film.
