When you wish upon a star, even a tame summary of this movie proves it insane. We’re talkin’ Pinocchio, Disney’s second animated feature! Geppetto, a lonely drunk toymaker, builds himself a son who then runs off to the theater with a traveling Gypsy, gets kidnapped, and sent to an island where naughty boys get TURNED INTO DONKEYS TO BE SOLD TO THE SALT MINES- Let me take a breath! That’s not even including the WHALE and the bit about his NOSE GROWING and him NOT ACTUALLY BEING HUMAN and Gepetto is MAYBE in love with his Fish. There’s a lot to discuss here, least of which being how darn cute is Figaro!? His little feet!! Marvel in disbelief with us at the insanity buried in this classic film!
