  Violence in G-rated Animated Feature Films, press release of Tuesday, May 23, 2000, Harvard School of Public Health
Boston, MA--G-rated animated feature films are not as violence free as their rating suggests.
A study of G-rated animated feature films available for rental finds that acts of violence in these movies are common, and that the amount of violence in this popular form of children's entertainment has risen dramatically over the years.
Though violent content in such films has always varied widely, the average amount of time depicting acts of violence in children's animated films has gone from approximately 6 minutes in 1940 (Snow White introduced the genre in 1937) to 9 and a half minutes in 1999.
