It's progressive, it's racist. It's heart-warming, it's depressing. It's a moral tale, it's apathetic. Whatever. All I know is: Pink Elephants on Parade. _Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._

When Mrs. Jumbo gets a gift from the stork, she is over the moon! Her youngster has everything just right, except - that is - he can wrap himself up in his own ears. The object of ridicule, she is soon locked up and he is reduced to being little better than a circus freak show attraction. Then fate takes a hand, and he meets the inspirational "Timothy Q. Mouse" who, after a bit of gentle persuasion, soon has our eponymous elephant thinking positively and his ears start to become a distinct advantage! The scene with the three crows is the stuff of cinema legend as is the Oliver Wallace and Ned Washington song "When I See an Elephant Fly". The original book is engaging and humorous, with a serious undercurrent about the damaging effects of mockery and scorn, and though Disney tones down these messages, they are still there for us to see, appreciate and hopefully remember in the wonderfully colourful and enjoyable animation - complete with pink elephants!

I watched this as a kid. Wasn't always my favorite. I just never really got into Dumbo. Good for the kids though.

Both the original animated movie "Dumbo" from 1941 and the live-action remake from 2019 are praised for capturing the essence of the beloved characters and delivering compelling storylines. The animated film introduced audiences to memorable characters like Timothy Mouse, Mrs. Jumbo, and the crows, creating a timeless classic that resonated with viewers for generations. In the 2019 live-action adaptation, the essence of the original characters was retained while introducing a new twist with a circus theme and a focus on family dynamics. The film successfully brought the magic of the animated classic to life in a new way, appealing to audiences both familiar with the original and newcomers to the story. The well-written scripts of both the animated and live-action versions added credibility to the films and continued the legacy of the beloved tale of Dumbo. Audiences found enjoyment in both adaptations, appreciating the care taken to honor the source material while also bringing a fresh perspective to the narrative. However, criticism arose regarding the portrayal of the crows in the original animated movie, with some labeling them as racist stereotypes. This controversy led to calls for the cancellation of the film, which sparked discussions around the historical context of the characters and their depiction in the story. It is noted that understanding the historical significance of such characters is crucial, and dismissing them as racist without context can lead to misinterpretations and perpetuate harmful stereotypes. In conclusion, both the original animated "Dumbo" and its live-action remake are celebrated for their storytelling, character development, and ability to enchant audiences. While controversies surrounding certain characters highlight the need for nuanced discussions on representation and historical context, these adaptations continue to hold a special place in the hearts of fans and showcase the enduring magic of Dumbo's tale.
