Mickey Mouse in Vietnam is a 16mm underground animated short film. The director was Whitney Lee Savage (father of Adam Savage, of Mythbusters fame); the producer and head designer was Milton Glaser. The short was produced under the auspices of a studio named Max Cats and Whittesey Sledge Studios. It features the Disney character Mickey Mouse being shipped to Vietnam during the war. Moments after arriving, he is shot dead. It was produced independently in 1969 and has a total running time of one minute.[1] It received an award from the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen in 1970.[2] The film was lost for many years until April 22, 2013 when a YouTube user uploaded the video.[3][4][5][6]
