The old animated Pinocchio movie coded its villains as the Nazis' targets: the queer actors, the Romani circus owner, and the Jewish businessman who was literally conspiring to reduce young men to beasts and enslave them, and it did this while wrapping itself in the same ideals and themes the Nazis were building their cultural mythology from. There was a rather long analysis someone linked here a few months ago, which I unfortunately didn't save.
For some reason I was thinking it was a video, but reading that I think that's it. I read that, and then when remembering it conflated it with a video about how bad the remake was, which explains why I couldn't find it.
I was just wondering something. Said guy who enslaved children was one of the few Disney villains to not receive his comeuppance. I wonder if that was to imply that THEY are still out there.
