Disney was certainly constrained by his commercial sensibilities, but I
sometimes think he wished there was a bigger market for the more
experimental stuff, just so he could get into it more.  Listen to his
comments on the _Fantasia_ DVD during the Bach sequence, or note the
influence of Salvador Dali on the 'Pink Elephants' sequence in _Dumbo_.
