Columbia Pictures became the world’s fifth largest major film studio in 1920s thanks to Cohn’s management and the association with talented director Frank Capra. In fact, its movie It Happened One Night almost swept the 1934 Oscars. At that time, its products consisted mostly of moderately budgeted features and short subjects including comedies, sport films, various serials, and cartoons, then gradually moved into the production of higher-budget fare, eventually joining the second tier of Hollywood studios. On the other hand, Walt Disney created a short film named Alice’s Wonderland, then his firm bankrupted in the same year and Walt Disney has to moved to Hollywood to join his brother, Roy O. Disney.

Later on in the 1930s and 1940s, both Columbia Pictures and Disney have done a lot effort to elevate the company level and increase product dimensions. Walt
