Behind the Boards on Baby Weems

　　Behind the Boards on Baby Weems is a rare interview with long-time Disney story-man and artist Joe Grant. Maltin discusses how Grant got his start at the studio and the unusual story-reel format of the “Baby Weems” short seen in The Reluctant Dragon. Grant reveals that “Weems” and the “Dragon” shorts from the film were both originally considered for full-length theatrical releases, but ultimately didn’t warrant the longer running time. He explains that concepts such as these were the springboard for the package features like Dragon, Make Mine Music, and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
