Review of Pinocchio (1940) by Guido M — 23 Jun 2012
"Deep and Magical, Pinocchio is the most Disney of the Disney classics, with a wonderful moral, and a story worth telling".
Memories. This movie brings lots of memories. Even in VHS or DVD, is never late to see Pinocchio, because it keeps maintaining it's imagination and wild storytelling.
Pinocchio can teach children and also teenaners for generations. It's moral is so wonderful, so simple and so strong by the way, the whole movie keeps around it without falling apart.
Pinocchio does not fear to touch dangerous territories, even lots of frightening parts, it keeps reminding us the meaning of Wishes, and they can come true.
The music, the animation, the plot itself it's so creative and adventuresome it can keep being a classic for years. And even though some scenes are pretty harsh, it's what mantains the movie on it's flow to do not fall apart.
Gepetto (Christian Rub) has build the perfect child marionette, called Pinocchio (Dick Jones). He wishes he could be a real boy and with the help of a blue fairy, the puppet is given life. But to become a real boy, he has to difference right from wrong, and be brave, truthful and unselfish, and let his conscience, a cricket called Jiminy Cricket (Cliff Edwards) be his guide.
Pinocchio in the way will learn lots of thing about growing. What is good, what is bad and what is rather dangerous, and that's what makes it a classic, because parents show this movie to their sons and their sons to their sons, and succesively it keeps entertaining families for generations.
