Trivia:
A very tightly budgeted, scripted, and produced film, because Walt Disney needed the film to bring in much-needed revenue after the expensive failures of Pinocchio (1940) and Fantasia (1940). Final negative cost of Dumbo was $813,000 (making it the least expensive of all Disney's animated features), and it grossed over $2.5 million in its original release (more than Pinocchio (1940)'s and Fantasia (1940)'s original grosses combined).

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: As the stork looks down from the cloud and scans for the circus train, the rimlight on the cloud overlaps his beak. (This mistake was corrected in the DVD version.)

brilliant Disney classic, 9 July 2003

Disney's flying elephant with the big ears. Timothy Mouse and the
peanuts.
The pyramid of jumbos in the circus ring. The roustabouts building the
big
top. Elephants on parade. The heartbreak of Mrs Jumbo. Mr Stork and his
stubborn packages up in the clouds. The crows.
The animation is perfect and so are the songs on the soundtrack. Dumbo is
an hour of perfection and one of Disney's best.
