DUMBO

I watched Dumbo this morning while waiting for my clothes to dry. It is a highly disturbing movie. Here is my synopsis of the movie:

1. An infant, in a sheet, falls from a cloud numerous times because a stork cannot pay attention for more than 5 seconds at a time.
2. Said infant (Jumbo Junior) is immediately mocked and humiliated by grown women.
3. We then have a classic case of wrongful imprisonment of Mrs. Jumbo.
4. Jumbo Juniors name is changed to Dumbo by his one and only friend...as if he wasn't humiliated enough.
5. Countless acts of child endangerment, or animal cruelty...it all depends on how you look at it.
6. The abusing adults get drunk and because of their negligence an unsupervised baby gets drunk as well.
7. The only good thing is at the end of the movie when Dumbo is reunited with his Mother. (This of course only after he is the drunken adults meal ticket, bringing the circus loads of money.)
