Le Crapaud et le Maître d'école
Walt Disney also had Wallace score full-length films for the studios for over 27 years. He started writing the score for "Dumbo" (1941), for which he, together with Frank Churchill, won his first and only Oscar in 1942. He went on to score "Victory Through Air Power" (1943), "The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad" (1949), "Cinderella" (1950) along with Paul J. Smith, "Alice in Wonderland" (1951), "Peter Pan" (1953), "Lady and the Tramp" (1955), and "White Wilderness" (1958). Wallace also voiced the villainous Mr. Winkie in "The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad", though he was uncredited as a voice actor. He received four other Oscar nominations for the music to "Victory Through Air Power" with Edward H. Plumb and Paul J. Smith (losing to Alfred Newman for "The Song of Bernadette"), "Cinderella" with Paul J. Smith (losing to Adolph Deutsch and Roger Edens for "Annie Get Your Gun"), "Alice in Wonderland" (losing to Johnny Green and Saul Chaplin for "An American in Paris"), and "White Wilderness" (losing to Dimitri Tiomkin for "The Old Man and the Sea"). A common characteristic of all these productions was the cooperation of several composers in the creation of the music. Wallace understood this and integrated "leitmotiv"-like elements from the individual songs into the film scores.
