This fall, Cornell Cinema is celebrating the centennial of Disney with weekend matinees of some of the studio’s most beloved films.

Our Cornell Cinema series will feature roughly one film from each decade of the studio’s existence and will trace the ways that the Disney brand has evolved over the past century from an aesthetic, technological, and business perspective.
