Walt Disney’s animated classic is not racist, nor were the people who made the movie.”

Norman on “Jim Crow” as sarcasm: “The reason the head crow is named, ‘Jim,’ is Disney taking a cartoony jab at the oppressive South.

However, it is totally wrong to revise history simply because it makes you uncomfortable.' There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that.

Norman on altering history: “The world has changed and the culture has changed.

Walt Disney was an entertainer and his animated motion pictures reflected and emulated the popular show business performers of his day.” Walt Disney was not a racist nor were his animators.

Norman on entertainment of the times: “I knew Walt Disney and I’m convince the Old Maestro would not be keen on his animated classics being revised by the PC Police.

Norman on pulling inspiration from the scene for another film: “If you’ll recall, I did the same thing many years later in another Walt Disney movie called, The Jungle Book….there was no controversy over these singing birds who just happen to sound like another famous musical group from Liverpool.”.

It’s the turnaround song for Dumbo and his life will never be the same.” The song they sing is pure fun and entertainment and the animation is inspired. Timothy is so enraged by this song that he lectures the crows on their cruelty, telling them that while still young, Dumbo was torn away (slave-like) from. After Timothy Mouse scolds the feathered group, they soon have a change of heart and decide to encourage the little elephant.

Norman on the “When I Seen an Elephant Fly” sequence: “If you remember the story, a group of cool crows nesting in a field decide to have some fun at the elephant’s expense.

It’s every marvelous thing we can’t do today and we’re all the poorer for it.”

Drunken clowns, an acid trip of a dream and a host of black crows singing scat. Norman on Dumbo as a whole: “Of course, it showcases a brand of humor you could never get away today.
