The Roys go to Hollywood, where there's one role everyone in town wants to play: Logan Roy.

It’s a tired old story, but it bears retelling: Walt Disney didn’t conceive Epcot as a theme park. As documented in a filmed presentation from 1966, E.P.C.O.T.—Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow—was to be a fully functioning city adjacent to what became Walt Disney World. That film’s intended audience were Florida lawmakers, but thanks to archival efforts of the Walt Disney Company and gray market bootleggers like the eBay seller who provided the DVD copy I received as a birthday gift a few years back, we can all bear witness to Disney’s only slightly spooky sales pitch for his vision of modern living, presented as if it’s a prelude to the next installment of Davy Crockett.
