Tim Burton has never been good at telling tender fairy tales! Warmth and beauty wrapped in unsightly reality were put on the table for people to savor.
The following are just my comments
The first layer of "Dumbo" can be understood as the dream of DUMBO, a small elephant with big ears...
The dumbo elephant actually saw its status from the very beginning. This baby elephant was born with a different kind of big ears. It is also a defect. Its mother was imprisoned in a cramped train car for the circus owner to buy and sell without dignity and freedom. The night before she gave birth, she saw birds flying freely in the sky... The desire in her heart gave this big-eared elephant the ability to fly.
But maybe it's just the baby elephant and its mother's dream. Maybe they never left the circus and returned to the prairie. They spent their lives in filthy cramped circuses.
"Mom, why are my ears different from others?" "Because those are wings that can fly, my child, you are gifted, and you can fly like a bird"... Dreaming is ten, DUMBO and my mother made a flying circus together The group, the dream of returning to nature. It's not like the good-hearted lies given by a great mother in reality in the face of her beloved disabled child.
But if it's just a disabled baby elephant who dreams of freedom, the dream of returning to nature, Dumbo, is too cruel. So he has a second comment that it represents the self-salvation of the poor and struggling people at the bottom of the injustice era!
Everyone at the Medocchi Circus is a poor man. The male protagonist is good at horseback riding, but he was forced to recruit and his arm was broken. The wife was gentle and sweet but died of the flu.
Mermaids yearn for a beautiful body like a real mermaid and can swim in the ocean, but in fact they are fat and no one appreciates them
Black strongmen have no human rights, one person has multiple roles, butler, accountant, performer, perpetual culprit, etc.
Even the circus owner is a silly poor fellow, but the colors here are bright. They hug each other to keep warm In those turbulent times for high-class people to laugh at the more people laugh, the more excited they are because they have nothing else to do and make a living from it.
They joined the villain's paradise for a living. The park is huge and brilliant, but the colors become cold and all the good things are suddenly distorted, just like the doomsday fireworks are fleeting and fleeting. Those high-class people admiring the captive animals for their own amusement, their appearance is as decent as the woman whose hat was ripped off by the dumbo can't see the truth.
In fact, those odd-shaped circus people are not animals for people to admire
Those weird circus people who get cleaned up and driven away once they're worthless are like some old animals that get euthanized or driven out without being appreciated?
No one is more noble
Who is born with a disability or a body or a mind
We all search for the meaning of life in self-redemption
ps [The most touching part of the whole film is the first time DUMBO flew and he found its meaning]
