The Movie Made Without Disney’s Permission

disneyLOS ANGELES — LOS ANGELES (AP) — As a kid, Randy Moore was haunted by Disney World, where he made an annual trip during summers with his dad. So as an adult, and a filmmaker, Moore wanted to capture and question the allure of such manufactured-fantasy.

The result is “Escape From Tomorrow,” which was shot guerrilla-style at Disneyland and Disney World without permission from the famously proprietary Walt Disney Co.

The writer-director insists there was no other way to tell his story of a frustrated family man who begins losing his grip on reality during a trip to Disney World. So Moore and his crew bought season passes to Disneyland in Anaheim, Calif., and Disney World in Orlando, Fla., and used hand-held digital cameras to shoot scenes and tiny digital audio recorders to capture sound.
