Somehow when I decided to create an Out-of-Context Poster for Disney‘s Dumbo in anticipation of its Default Disney review debuting this week, I didn’t realize I’d be starting off the year on a terrifying note. Dumbo of all films! How could that happen? After all, it’s a fun little Disney film featuring animal-abusing clowns, drunken night terror hallucinations, and flying elephants…never mind…I think I just answered my own question. See for yourself, if you dare.
Out-of-Context Posters #17: Dumbo (1941)
