Common card · No. 322664

Short Subject, more commonly known as Mickey Mouse in Vietnam, is a 16 mm animated anti-war underground film with a run time of one minute. It was released in 1969, with Whitney Lee Savage (father of Adam Savage) as director, and Milton Glaser as designer and producer. The short was not endorsed by The Walt Disney Company. The short has the satirical theme of Mickey Mouse volunteering for military service, and getting killed within moments of arriving in Vietnam to fight in the Vietnam War. It was considered lost until 2013 when a YouTube user uploaded the full short, albeit with replaced music. The full short with its original music was uploaded in 2018.
