Tonight at 10, Starz is premiering "The Pixar Story," a feature-length documentary recounting the history of the little Bay Area animation pioneer from its earliest days struggling to make short films to its string of blockbuster features. The premiere follows screenings of "Cars" and "Ratatouille." Iwerks' film will also be shown at 12:50 p.m. Wednesday and 11:15 a.m. April 30. Please check your local cable listings to verify showtimes. If you don't subscribe to Starz, find a friend or coworker who does. Do whatever you can to see this film and/or obtain a DVD or VHS copy of the broadcast. There may not be too many chances to see this documentary and it's definitely a film anyone interested in animation or technology will enjoy. With the release to cable, there's some question now whether Disney will put "The Pixar Story" out as a standalone DVD or tuck it inside some multidisc set of films fans already own. Visit Starz.com to watch short bonus material on the construction of Pixar's headquarters in Emeryville with a good look at the "Love Lounge"; the development of Pixar University and how that follows a tradition started by Walt Disney; and, finally for the trailer for "The Pixar Story."
