Dumbo (Disney 1941)


Dumbo, is the first animated film on ECM! I'm gonna bet you haven't seen this movie in a long, long time. Am I right? Have you forgotten the story? It's a good one I assure you!

Here is a very brief synopsis from IMDb...

The stork delivers a baby elephant to Mrs Jumbo, veteran of the circus, but the newborn is ridiculed because of his truly enormous ears and dubbed "Dumbo". Dumbo is relegated to the circus' clown acts; it is up to his only friend, a mouse, to assist Dumbo to achieve his full potential.
As we all know too well, some individuals look to the government for "help" way too much these days. And when they don't receive that "help", they almost instantly blame the society that surrounds them.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that that our government shouldn't provide assistance to Americans in need, but you know every once in a while a person will break out of a dark and hopeless situation and find their true potential without Uncle Sam's so called "help! "

I know...sounds weird but stick with me here!

But how, you ask, can someone find this great potential when faced with adversity?

A friend is needed. Someone who reaches out and believes in the impossible. Someone who pushes relentlessly but also loves and cares. Dumbo had his friend (and an unlikely one at that) a mouse named Timothy!

Are you a "Timothy"? Have you ever been a "Timothy"? I gonna bet in a small way (or maybe a large way) you already have been that type of friend...and will be again, and again and again!

Dumbo is great movie with a great conservative message!

H-E-L-P!

While they bitch and moan in Washington about how THEY think THEY can better serve us, let's just take care of business ourselves shall we? Anybody can do something that can make a difference in someone's life!

Don't know where to start? What about the...

Red Cross
Salvation Army
Boys & Girls Club
Habitat for Humanity

Let's do this...I mean after all folks, Dumbo is a Republican.


Here's the trailer!






Baby you're mine!
