I have a vague memory of going to see this at age 4 and my mom having to call someone to come get me when she realized it was too much for a 4 yo so she could stay with my older brother.
To me, Disney's best film, because it did not have to be any longer or shorter than it was. Nothing lengthened or trimmed for timing alone in edit that I know of.
I'm sorry about the miscarriage. ππππΌ Love it! β€οΈβπ₯
The love a mother has is unlike anything. It doesn't matter if you have fur or you're a Great White; it kills us to have a baby pass, or get taken away, or hurt. I'm emotional writing this reply.
I have to fast forward this scene so I donβt bawl my eyes out also π.
I did, however, sing it to my 19 year old feline companion before she died. It was the most appropriate song I could think ofβ¦.. OMG Iβm crying πΏ now
Oh my goodness. Me too! Truly one of the most heartbreaking songs ever (especially in a cartoon π₯Ή). I had that same scene on my Facebook for a long time. It means even more now that my mom is gone.
You know what kills me? Last night was both a Disney and Mothers' Day theme on American Idol and never, ever, on nights with themes like this does anyone chose this song.
Maybe some day........
When my sister became a grandmother she created a video baby book for her daughter and this song accompanied the pictures. That's what I think of now, instead of that heartbreaking scene from Dumbo.
When our cat Pearl recently passed away, my husband compiled a video of her pictures, accompanied with Bill Withersβ Ainβt No Sunshine - now I can no longer listen to it without crying π₯Ίβ€οΈ

Nooooo!!
Little one, dry your eye.
Lay your head close to my heart,
never to part.
Baby you're mine.
I was unprepared for just how much that movie would hurt.
Then we had our rainbow baby, and I decorated her room with Dumbo. Mothers love is so different than any other kind.

It's also why Bambi is impossible to watch too lol
And this is exactly what's happening in our country today.ππ’
