Forgive me for never seeing this until now. But I just saw it and thought it was well done. This is done 3 years before Robert died. Richard as we know is still kicking around to this day. Robert looked very old in this documentary, but I still enjoyed his perspective. These guys have their fingerprints all over people's childhood memories with Disney parks/movies music. Stuff some people don't even realize they wrote. I often wondered how it worked with two brothers doing all of that work and you got a good viewpoint from their lens.
The brothers weren't particularly close outside of work. Their children never really saw each other, they didn't get together for family events but just rather business events. It does seem to elude to the reason being that the wives may have butted heads. They don't delve into it as much as I thought they would, I guess they had their reasons for not being close to one another and seemed to keep a lot of that private.
You could still see - 43 years later - the love they had for Walt. They still talked about his death like it was yesterday. Anyway, great documentary, what are your thoughts on it, or just the Sherman Bros. personally?
