Critic argued · United Kingdom → United States

Directors Ron Clements and John Musker studied the 1940 British-American fantasy epic The Thief of Bagdad, producer Alexander Korda's lavish, Technicolor adventure. Korda's use of scale, towering palaces, magical transformations, the sheer spectacle of production design, became the visual foundation for Disney's Agrabah. This wasn't cartoon world-building. This was early Hollywood fantasy translated into animation.
