Question: Whom did the 1946 American live-action animated musical film, about the southern United States during the Reconstruction Era featuring Johnny Lee, star as the main character?
Context: Pete's Dragon is a 1977 American live-action animated musical fantasy comedy film directed by Don Chaffey, produced by Jerome Courtland and Ron Miller, and written by Malcolm Marmorstein.  It is based on an unpublished short story of the same name, written by classical Hollywood writer Seton I. Miller.  It stars Helen Reddy, Jim Dale, Mickey Rooney, Red Buttons, Shelley Winters, and Charlie Callas.  It revolves around an orphaned boy raised by an abusive hillbilly family who is friends with a dragon named Elliott. William Archibald Dunning (12 May 1857–25 August 1922) was an American historian and political scientist at Columbia University noted for his work on the Reconstruction era of the United States.  He founded the informal Dunning School of interpreting the Reconstruction era through his own writings and the Ph.D. dissertations of his numerous students.  Historian Howard K. Beale was a leader of the "revisionist" school of the 1930s that broke with the Dunning interpretation.  Beale says the Dunning School broke new ground by escaping the political polemics of the day and used "meticulous and thorough research [...] in an effort to determine the truth rather than prove a thesis."  Beale states that, "The emphasis of the Dunning school was upon the harm done to the South by Radical Reconstruction and on the sordid political and economic motives behind Radicalism."  However, Dunning has also been criticized for his "blatant use of the discipline of history for reactionary ends" and for offering "scholarly legitimacy to the disenfranchisement of southern blacks and to the Jim Crow system." The Reconstruction Era National Monument is a United States National Monument in Beaufort County, South Carolina established by President Barack Obama in January 2017 to preserve and commemorate activities during the Reconstruction Era that followed the American Civil War.  The monument is the first national monument dedicated to the Reconstruction era.  It is administered by the National Park Service. In United States history, the Redeemers were a political coalition in the Southern United States during the Reconstruction Era that followed the Civil War.  Redeemers were the southern wing of the Bourbon Democrats, the conservative, pro-business faction in the Democratic Party, who pursued a policy of Redemption, seeking to oust the Radical Republicans, a coalition of freedmen, "carpetbaggers", and "scalawags" (poorer non-slaveholding whites).  They generally were led by the rich landowners, businessmen and professionals, and dominated Southern politics in most areas from the 1870s to 1910. John Dotson "Johnny" Lee, Jr. (July 4, 1898 – December 12, 1965) was an American singer, dancer and actor known for voicing the role of Br'er Rabbit in Disney's "Song of the South".  He is probably best remembered as the clownish, cringing, tremulous-voiced shyster pseudo-lawyer Algonquin J. Calhoun in the CBS "Amos 'n' Andy" TV and radio comedy series in the early 1950s. The term Reconstruction Era, in the context of the history of the United States, has two senses: the first covers the complete history of the entire country from 1865 to 1877 following the American Civil War (1861 to 1865); the second sense focuses on the attempted transformation of the Southern United States from 1863 to 1877, as directed by Congress, with the reconstruction of state and society.  With the three Reconstruction Amendments, the era saw the first amendments to the U.S. Constitution in decades. Song of the South is a 1946 American live-action animated musical film produced by Walt Disney and released by RKO Radio Pictures.  It is based on the collection of Uncle Remus stories as adapted by Joel Chandler Harris, and stars James Baskett as Uncle Remus.  The film takes place in the southern United States during the Reconstruction Era, a period of American history shortly after the end of the American Civil War and the abolition of slavery.  The story follows 7-year-old Johnny (Bobby Driscoll) who is visiting his grandmother's plantation for an extended stay.  Johnny befriends Uncle Remus, one of the workers on the plantation, and takes joy in hearing his tales about the adventures of Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, and Br'er Bear.  Johnny learns from the stories how to cope with the challenges he is experiencing living on the plantation. Saludos Amigos (Spanish for "Greetings, Friends") is a 1942 American live-action animated package film produced by Walt Disney and released by RKO Radio Pictures.  It is the sixth Disney animated feature film and the first of the six package films produced by Walt Disney Productions in the 1940s.  Set in Latin America, it is made up of four different segments; Donald Duck stars in two of them and Goofy stars in one.  It also features the first appearance of José Carioca, the Brazilian cigar-smoking parrot.  "Saludos Amigos" was popular enough that Walt Disney decided to make another film about Latin America, "The Three Caballeros", to be produced two years later.  "Saludos Amigos" premiered in Rio de Janeiro on August 24, 1942.  It was released in the United States on February 6, 1943.  At 42 minutes, it is Disney's shortest animated feature to date.  It garnered positive reviews and was theatrically reissued in 1949, when it was shown on a double bill with the first reissue of "Dumbo". The Three Caballeros is a 1944 American live-action animated musical package film produced by Walt Disney and released by RKO Radio Pictures.  The film premiered in Mexico City on December 21, 1944.  It was released in the United States on February 3, 1945 and in the UK that March.  The seventh Disney animated feature film, the film plots an adventure through parts of Latin America, combining live-action and animation.  This is the second of the six package films released by Walt Disney Productions in the 1940s, following "Saludos Amigos" (1942). Fun and Fancy Free is a 1947 American live-action animated musical fantasy comedy package film produced by Walt Disney and released on September 27, 1947 by RKO Radio Pictures.  It is the 9th Disney animated feature film and the fourth of the package films the studio produced in the 1940s in order to save money during World War II.  The Disney package films of the late 1940s helped finance "Cinderella", and subsequent others, such as "Alice in Wonderland" and "Peter Pan".
