Viewing Human Nature from "Little Dumbo"

Zander 2021-11-12 08:01:24

Today is the second time. I was about to cry, but the tears didn't fall.

I’ve heard people say that good cartoons are shot for adults.

Just like "Crazy Zoo".

The child saw it was fun.

The youth saw inspiration.

People in society see the darkness.

So, this work is no exception.

You can touch the left and say something

"A Disney product must be a boutique!"

I remember the first time I watched it, I just thought it was fun.

Whether it’s good music or painting, there’s nothing to say about imagination.

The second time I saw it, I was deeply moved.

Imagine that you are different from other children when you are born.

Others laugh at you and bully you.

Your mother was locked up by bad guys to protect you.

At that time, you were still a little baby!

It's another dark fairy tale.

If you have ever rode an elephant, I advise you not to ride it anymore.

Their bones will break.

If you like watching animal shows, I also advise you not to watch it again.

It depends on yourself.

You may know how the horns came from.

Rely on hitting and scolding.

But other animals, they don't want to.

Imagine it.

You were caught by a group of people.

You also have a lovely child.

Was also caught.

You are locked up separately.

Not far away.

Here comes the gang.

Take the whip and hit your cute baby hard.

Ask him to do all kinds of actions.

He didn't want to do it.

He cried.

But those people can't see it.

Playing frantically.

And you are furious.

Want to save him.

but……

You are locked by heavy chains.

Won't you be uncomfortable?

Won't you cry?

Won't you heartache?

"Dumbo" is such a work.

It seems to be a success.

but……

This just works.

And what about the elephants in reality?

Still living in pain

There will be no peace...

Dumbo quotes

  • [after the pyramid accident]

    Elephant Matriarch: Oh, I never thought I'd live to see the big top fall.

    Giddy: Because of that Dumbo, I never *can* show my face there again.

    Fidgity Elephant: Oh, look at my beautiful tail!

    Elephant Matriarch: I just like to spank the daylights out of him, I...

    [she raises her trunk from her cast, but the pain stops her, and she groans as she lowers her trunk back into the cast]

    Prissy: Oh, that won't be necessary, dearie. They fixed him good.

    Elephant Matriarch: What do you mean?

    Giddy: What did they do?

    Fidgity Elephant: Did they beat him?

    Giddy: What is it, Darling?

    Fidgity Elephant: Tell us!

    Elephant Matriarch: Come, come, I demand to know!

    Prissy: Oh, well... they've gone and made him... oh, dear, I just can't say it.

    Elephant Matriarch: Out with it!

    Prissy: Made him a clown.

    Fidgity Elephant: A clown?

    Giddy: No!

    Prissy: Yes!

    Elephant Matriarch: Oh, the shame of it. Let us take the solemn vow.

    [all the elephants raise their trunks]

    Elephant Matriarch: From now on, he is no longer an elephant.

    [they touch trunks together]

  • Timothy Q. Mouse: You all oughta be ashamed of yourselves. A bunch of big guys like you, pickin' on a poor little orphan like him. Suppose you was torn away from your mother when you was just a baby. Nobody to tuck you in at nights. No warm, soft, caressin' trunk to snuggle inta. How would you like being left out alone, in a cold, cruel, heartless woild? And why? I ask ya, why? Just because he's got those big ears, they call him a freak. The laughing stock of the circus. And when his mother tried to protect him, they threw her into the clink. And on top of that, they made him a *clown*! Socially he's washed up! Aw, but what's the use of talkin' to you cold-hearted boids? Go ahead! Have your fun! Laugh at him! Kick him now that he's down! Go on! We don't care.
