In the night of the day before yesterday, I watched "Full Metal Jacket (1987)" by Stanley Kubrick after a long time I didn't watch it. I said "long time", but actually it maybe a year or two. I love this film so much, since I watched at the first time when I was a 20 years old boy.
On this time, I realized something stupid which is definitely outside of the screen, a backstage issue. In this film, sometimes USMC troopers are singing "Mickey Mouse Theme". However, this film was produced by Warner Brothers.
As most of you knows that Walt Disney was in competition with Warner Brothers since 1930s at cartoon film market. And of course Mickey Mouse was the icon of the world of Walt Disney. Then, I thought how Kubrick could realise this cross-border lincence? I think it's impossible for today. Good old days.
