A wish can make everyone special. Another beginning with a book. It begins with “Once night a long time ago…” The “fly down” to Geppetto’s window was dark and murky, but there was another fly down coming. Geppetto treated Pinocchio like his son. Geppetto also cared for all of his creations like his children, too. Geppetto’s “world” was created from wood, gears, etc. The water effect (Even seeing Pinocchio walking through Cleo’s fishbowl) was incredible. The clocks shows violence, drunkeness, spanking, etc. Figaro was jealous of Pinocchio, like Tinkerbell was of Wendy. Geppetto was smoking in bed. Geppetto’s Wish was that Pinocchio to be a real boy. Jiminy initially had not faith/belief in Geppetto’s wish “What a lovely thought, but not practical”. When Jiminy screamed for everything to be quite, he stopped all the clocks. No one will wake up on time. The Blue Fairy (partially granted) Wish #1 – She gave Pinocchio life, but didn’t make him a real boy, yet. The Blue Fairy told Pinocchio to be “Brave, Truthful and Unselfish” I want to thank Todd and Kristen from the Walt Sent Me Podcast for their thoughts on Pinocchio.
