Which Disney Film was released first, Lt. Robin Crusoe, U.S.N. or The Apple Dumpling Gang?
Lt. Robin Crusoe, U.S.N. Lt. Robin Crusoe USN is a 1966 comedy film released and scripted by Walt Disney, and starring Dick Van Dyke as a U.S. Navy pilot who becomes a castaway on a tropical island. Some filming took place in San Diego, while a majority of the film was shot on Kauai, Hawaii.
Gang War Gang War (released as All Square in the UK) is a 1928 part-talking gangster film, best known for being the main feature attached to "Steamboat Willie", the debut of Mickey Mouse in sound. The film starred Jack Pickford in his last major role, as "Clyde", a saxophone player whose love for a dancer named Flowers (Olive Borden) traps him in the middle of a gang war. The film was released with talking sequences, as well as a musical score and sound effects for the silent sections. But despite the synchronised sound as well as the all-star cast, the film is largely unknown in its own right and is now a lost film, being overshadowed by its far more famous preceding short.
