Top Pick: Howard
Howard Ashman is a Disney legend. Not long after bringing Little Shop of Horrorsto life, he hopped over to the Mouse House where he served as a producer and lyricist for classic animations including The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin.
Created by Ashman's fellow producer Don Hahn, Howardwill take a closer look at this musical hero's life and legacy. The documentary will kick-off with Ashman's upbringing in Baltimore, explore his creative contributions at Disney, and conclude with his tragic AIDS-related death.
Loaded with archival footage and interviews, we're hoping Howardis the legacy Ashman deserves. Its nostalgia-filled trailer is a good start.
