Disney Movie Appreciation: Iron Will

Join us for the finale of our Disney Appreciation Series, when our beloved sensei Jeff Arch — the Oscar-nominated writer of Sleepless in Seattle — takes us behind the scenes of Iron Will, the Walt Disney Studios adventure he wrote. Jeff will be joined by David Kirkpatrick, former production chief of Disney Studios, who'll be asking the questions. Knowing these two, expect an hour that's as hilarious as it is informative.

Before joining us, please watch Iron Will (1994), a Disney classic about grit, courage, and the power of following your own path even when the odds are stacked against you. Based on a true story, it follows a young man who enters a grueling 500-mile dogsled race across the frozen north to save his family's farm and, in doing so, discovers what real determination looks like. It's the kind of film that reminds us why Disney has endured for generations: stories with real stakes, real heart, and lessons that stay with you long after the credits roll. You can watch it on YouTube, Disney+, or rent it on Amazon.
