	DVD Review - Dumbo
		For 60 years now, "Dumbo" has been a family favorite among all the animated Disney movies and it is immediately understandable, why that is. The charm, the sweetness and the emotions that permeate the film are stronger than in any other one, and what’s more important they ring so very true.
		But with her support Dumbo uses this newfound knowledge and soon becomes the celebrated star of the show and with the help of his friend, Timothy the mouse, Dumbo manages to break the shackles of his life and even make it to Hollywood.
		The fullscreen presentation of "Dumbo" on this DVD is certainly pleasant, but not quite as striking as the recently restored version "Snow White." The print is mostly free of defects and blemishes but there is quite a bit of grain evident in the picture as a result of its considerable age.

	Dumbo, 60th Anniversary DVD (2001): Edward Brophy, Cliff Edwards, Sterling Holloway, Herman Bin - PopMatters Film Review
		The animated film remains a deeply moving picture and conveys various universal themes -- the fear of being separated from one's mother, facing discrimination on the basis of physical appearance -- with a simple eloquence that is neither preachy nor trite.
		Dumbo was released roughly six weeks before the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
		Key among these is Dumbo's mother (voiced by Sarah Selby), separated from her son throughout much of the film, just as America was cut off from Great Britain and other allies at the time of Dumbo's release.

	The dumbo rat mutation and human analogues
		The dumbo mutation appeared first in the pet trade, and as of this writing the scientific community appears to be unaware of this interesting mutation in domestic rats.
		The dumbo rat's malformed and malpositioned ears, possible small jaw, possible differences in eye shape and position, and possible underdevelopment of the muscles that move the ears or the nerves that control them, are all strongly suggestive of a first and second pharyngeal arch disorder.
		Dumbo rats may turn out to be a potential animal model for first and second pharyngeal arch disorders in humans.

		In Disneyland, Dumbo* means a flying elephant, but in Brooklyn, a new acronym was coined in the 1980s to refer to the mostly industrial area located beneath the Manhattan Bridge: "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass." It's rather awkward but gets the job done.
		Recently, Dumbo has been invaded by Manhattanites seeking living space; old lofts are being renovated and converted to residential use, the buildings are being spiffed up, new parks, delis, and banks are appearing.
		Dumbo is laced with what, on first glace, appear to be old trolley tracks.

	Dumbo - Don Markstein's Toonopedia
		Dumbo was immediately hailed as a classic, embraced by critics and audiences alike — in contrast to earlier features such as Fantasia, which got favorable reviews but took almost 30 years to make back its costs, or The Reluctant Dragon, which neither the critics nor the public seem to have cared for very much.
		None of the voice actors in Dumbo received screen credit; but Timothy Mouse (who befriended Dumbo even in his darkest days and was instrumental in helping him find greatness within himself) was voiced by Edward Brophy, who has no other known voice credits or other toon connection.
		Jumbo (Dumbo's mother, whose love for him never wavered even when she was judged a mad elephant and imprisoned for it) was Verna Felton, who also played the Fairy Godmother in Disney's Cinderella and one of the good fairies in Sleeping Beauty.

	'Dumbo' - Disney classic soars onto DVD - Zap2it
		Produced in the aftermath of the wildly experimental "Fantasia," "Dumbo" is deceptively simple -- In only 64 minutes, it tells the story of a baby elephant ostracized for his larger-than-normal ears, who learns to embrace the things that make him different and to literally soar.
		There are two period Disney shorts appropriately tied to "Dumbo." In "Elmer Elephant," the title character has to overcome self-consciousness about his nose to woo a cute tiger and find his true purpose.
		The 15-minute "Celebrating Dumbo" featurette emphasizes the speed with which the film was developed, animated and executed, a relief after the arduous process behind "Fantasia." Much is also made of its atypical length, with Roy Disney providing the perfect analysis, declaring, "I doesn't want to be any longer than 60 minutes."

	Crimson Celluloid :: Resident DVDvil :: Dumbo: Big Top Edition
		I remembered that Dumbo was an elephant with gigantic ears who was born in a circus, and that his mother was locked away after saving him from some rotten kids that were taunting him.
		"Dumbo" is not the traditional animated classic in that it is very exaggerated in some of its animation.
		"Dumbo" is a wonderful film for children and I thoroughly enjoyed this new 'Big Top Edition.' Like most Disney DVDs, it comes complete with games and sing-along videos for the kids as well as a read-along DVD storybook.

		This ultimately lands her in elephant solitary confinement, and Dumbo’s left to fend for himself among the inhospitable crowd.
		However, the results aren’t pretty, mainly due to Dumbo’s intrusive appendages; a gag in which Dumbo is supposed to stand atop a stack of elephants collapses when he trips on his ears.
		Dumbo appears in an aspect ratio of 1.33:1 on this single-sided, double-layered DVD; due to those dimensions, the image has not been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.

		A few days later, she is compensated with an adorable baby elephant nicknamed Dumbo by the sewing circle for his oversize ears.
		Base childhood anxieties work the gears of Dumbo in addition to Dumbo the character, whose muteness--to paraphrase DVD commentator John Canemaker--clears a path for our symbolic projections: how we relate to not only his maternal loss, but also to his distinguishing physical traits and clumsiness.
		Many an authority on the subject cites Dumbo as the Disney studio's finest hour (literally: at 64 minutes, it's the shortest of Disney's theatrical releases), but I find it a bit too undemanding to belong in the same company as flanking projects Pinocchio and Bambi.

		Poor little Dumbo, with his big ears, is ridiculed and called a freak by the other elephants, harassed by kids going in to see the circus, separated from his mother, and eventually made into a clown, the very embodiment of his unhappy life.
		Dumbo is also a story about love, particularly the love between a mother and child, and the importance of friendship.

		Bill Tytla, also responsible for the sinister characterization of "Pinocchio's" Stromboli (1940), was the key animator for "Dumbo." He based the character's childlike expressions and earnestness on those of his son, Peter.
