About Hansel and Gretel: An Opera Fantasy Being the First American Non-Disney Animated Film in 12 Years[edit]

I don't understand. Why did everyone have to wait until 1954 for the next American non-Disney animated film, Hansel and Gretel: An Opera Fantasy to come out? Was it because the other studios were too busy producing more live-action films and slapstick cartoons in the early 50s, was it because RKO's contract with Walt Disney had expired, was it because the other studios felt that they needed to take a break from producing more live-action films and slapstick cartoons and releasing and distributing foreign animated films internationally (i.e. The Magic Horse, which was subtitled in English in 1949, The Emperor's Nightingale, which was dubbed in English in 1951, and Johnny the Giant Killer, which was supposedly dubbed in English in 1953), or was it because animation fans had had enough of every single American animated film being produced by Disney? --Ktommy (talk) 16:07, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Awards[edit]

View Video, the DVD distributor, lists numerous awards for this film on their website and on the DVD package. [1]:

However, only one, from the Dove Foundation, could be independently cited. When searching the databases of the other awards listed, Hansel & Gretel was notably absent. Therefore, I have moved the others awards from the article Main page to the Talk page.
