Dumbo was, growing, up, a classic icon of Disney for me. We never hit Disney without a ride on Dumbo, and I can remember rewinding the VHS tape of the film countless times over the years to watch again, again, and again once more. Dumbo was the fourth animated film for Disney (look how far they’ve come!) and won an Academy Award for Best Music along with a nomination for Best Song as well.
I was so excited when I heard that this movie was to come from the vaults, having been restored to what is assumed to be the original color approved by Walt Disney himself. I am trying to have all Disney films on BluRay and/or DVD for our family to enjoy over the years- and being able to add films that were previously “in the vault” makes me so happy! Seeing the famous flying elephant once again brings back so many memories for me from childhood!
