Stolen Kingdom

Who stole Buzzy? If you went to the Walt Disney World Resort between 1989 and 2007, you may have seen Buzzy, the happy-looking host of the fun and educational Cranium Command. And then, years after the ride closed, Buzzy was stolen. Raised in Florida, Austin filmmaker Joshua Bailey was one of those kids who sailed past Buzzy on his trips to EPCOT, and his documentary quest to find what happened became a story of urban explorers, the black market in Disney props, and sealed-off secrets of the Most Magical Place on Earth. After an early local screening back in February, he’s bringing the film back to Austin as part of a national tour, complete with post-screening Q&A. – Richard Whittaker
