Pinocchio (87 min)
Synopsis: Pinocchio longs to be a real boy. Crafted by the master woodcarver Geppetto, the puppet is brought to life by the Blue Fairy when Geppetto makes a “Wish Upon a Star.” But before he can become a real boy, Pinocchio must prove himself to be brave, truthful and unselfish – not an easy task for a little wooden boy just learning about the world. To assist him, the Blue Fairy appoints Jiminy Cricket to be Pinocchio’s conscience. Even with Jiminy Cricket’s urging to “Give a Little Whistle” and always let your conscience be your guide, a pair of scheming con artists lead Pinocchio astray. Every time Pinocchio lies to the Blue Fairy, his nose grows longer. But when the fearsome whale, Monstro, swallows Geppetto, Pinocchio must find a way to save his father and prove himself worthy of becoming a real boy.
Cast: Dickie Jones (Pinocchio); Cliff Edwards (Jiminy Cricket); Christian Rub (Geppetto); Walter Catlett (J. Worthington Foulfellow); Charles Judels (Stromboli and Coachman); Evelyn Venable (Blue Fairy); Frankie Darro (Lampwick)
Songs: “When You Wish Upon a Star,” “Little Wooden Head,” “Give a Little Whistle,” “Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee,” “I’ve Got No Strings”
Directed by Ben Sharpsteen and Hamilton Luske.
Premiered in New York on February 7, 1940.
US Theatrical Reissues: October 17, 1945; February 18, 1954; January 18, 1962; July 7, 1971; December 16, 1978; December 21, 1984; and June 26, 1992
US Home Media Releases: July 16, 1985 (VHS/Betamax/LD); March 26, 1993 (VHS/LD); October 26, 1999 (VHS/DVD); March 7, 2000 (VHS/DVD); March 10, 2009 (BR/DVD); January 31, 2017 (BR/DVD)
Trivia:
• Frames: 125,280
• From an original serialized story written for a children’s magazine by Collodi (the pen name of Carlo Lorenzini) in 1881.
• The film required the talents of 750 artists, including animators, assistants, inbetweeners, layout artists, background painters, special-effects animators, and inkers and painters, who produced more than 2 million drawings and used some 1,500 shades of paint for the Technicolor production.
• Jiminy Cricket became the film’s most popular and enduring character, appearing in subsequent Disney films and television shows, including the Mickey Mouse Club. The character, brought to life by animator Ward Kimball, was only a minor one in Collodi’s tale, in which he was eventually squashed by Pinocchio. The Disney film gave him a much more important role.
• The voice of Pinocchio, Dickie Jones (age 12), was discovered in a Dallas radio station strumming a ukulele as a “cowboy rambler.”
• The voice of Jiminy Cricket, Cliff Edwards, was a radio singer from Missouri also known as “Ukulele Ike.”
• The scene where Pinocchio is slung in a birdcage and rocking about in the back of Stromboli’s caravan was done with a Multiplane camera and is a complex piece of animation.
• Gustaf Tenggren, an award-winning illustrator, was assigned to the production to give the film the kind of lavish European storybook flavor that Walt Disney envisioned.
• Academy Award winner for Best Score and Best Song (“When You Wish Upon a Star”).
• The film cost $2.6 million in 1940, but using the same techniques and processes, it would cost well over $100 million today.
• In 1992, the film again returned to theaters in a new, painstakingly restored print by Buena Vista Worldwide Services and YCM Labs of Burbank.
