Sinopsis
(All Movie Guide)
Dumbo is the shortest and in many ways the sweetest
of Disney's major animated features. Does anyone at this late date need to be
told that the story involves a baby elephant with unusually large ears?
Ostracized from the rest of the circus animals, poor Dumbo is even separated
from his mother, who is chained up in a separate cage after trying to defend
her child. Only brash-but-lovable Timothy Mouse offers the hand of friendship
to Dumbo, encouraging the pouty pachyderm to exploit his "different" qualities
for fame and fortune. After trepidatiously indulging in a vat of booze (insert
the classic "Pink Elephants on Parade" number here, please), Dumbo awakens in
a tall tree. Goaded by a group of jive-talking crows, Dumbo discovers that his
outsized ears have given him the ability to fly! With Timothy Mouse acting as
his agent, Dumbo graduates to the circus' star attraction, and is happily
reunited with his loving mama. The musical score by
Frank Churchill
and Oliver
Wallace won Oscars for them both.
