Short filmTranscript
00:00Papa Geppetto, what is happening?
00:12I've never seen such wonder.
00:14Pinocchio?
00:16What is it, my son?
00:17Oh, my wig.
00:19Sorry.
00:20Look, the rain is fuzzy.
00:23That's not rain, my little acorn.
00:25It is snow.
00:27Snow?
00:28Christmas snow.
00:30And the people.
00:31Everybody laughs and sings and laughs some more and...
00:35They are filled with the Christmas spirit.
00:39I've never heard of Christmas.
00:42That is because you have never seen Christmas.
00:45It only happens once a year.
00:47And last year this time, you were still the branch of a tree.
00:53My little wooden son.
00:55Papa, is Christmas for marionettes, too?
00:59Christmas is for everyone.
01:01And it is less than a week away.
01:04Now, Pinocchio, I must decorate and make cookies and wrap gifts.
01:09I want to be a part of Christmas, too.
01:13Me, too!
01:15Merry...
01:15Merry...
01:15Down, you foolish feline.
01:17Do you want to give away our plans?
01:19Oh, do we have plans?
01:22And just what do you think we were planning on last night?
01:27Plans.
01:27Correct.
01:29Pinocchio is the world's only walking, talking marionette without strings.
01:34He is a living toy.
01:36He would make a perfect Christmas surprise for some child.
01:40We'll just whisk him away and find a wealthy father who will pay us handsomely to place Pinocchio under his tree.
01:49Good idea!
01:52I hope this is the best Christmas ever.
01:55I hope so, too.
01:57Knock on wood!
01:59Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
02:29Thank you very much.
02:30Thank you very much.
02:35Thank you very much.
04:07A happy problem, but a problem nevertheless.
04:11I never know what gifts to buy, do you?
04:15Never.
04:16On all my lists are scarves and ties.
04:19You too.
04:20Me too.
04:20I never know the size of gloves, the length of sleeves, the color she loves.
04:26And every time I buy a book, they've read it.
04:29Yeah, I've read it.
04:30Christmas gifts.
04:31You're right.
04:32Forget it.
04:34A scarf is nice.
04:36Warm.
04:38Dull.
04:38I never know what gifts to buy, do you?
04:43On all my lists are things scratched out.
04:46Me too.
04:48For shoes and socks are strictly nose.
04:50And hats are tough.
04:51Does she like bows?
04:53And if I buy a sweater, they'll return it.
04:56True.
04:56Christmas gifts.
04:59Well, darn it.
05:01A tie will be nice, red and blue.
05:03Oh, exciting.
05:04Dull.
05:05I never know what gifts to buy, do you?
05:10On all my lists are scarves and ties.
05:13You too.
05:15I guess this year you'll do the same.
05:17I'll burn the list and to each name I'll send my best regards and then forget it.
05:23Forget it.
05:24Christmas gifts.
05:25I never know what gifts to buy.
05:29Forget it.
05:31That's easy for you to say.
05:37But it's Christmas.
05:39Oh, what am I talking about anyway?
05:43I haven't got a copper for food, let alone money for gifts.
05:47If there was only something I could sell.
05:56But you are my old friend, Guccimo.
05:59Oh, yet you only offer ten lira for these fine boots?
06:04I'm doing you a favor.
06:06I'll be lucky if I get nine for them.
06:13Papa!
06:14A Christmas gift for me?
06:16Oh, Papa, what is it?
06:18It's a...
06:19book?
06:20Oh, an arithmetic book.
06:23Well, look, look, with chapters on addition and subtraction and...
06:28But it's not Christmas yet.
06:31You keep it until then.
06:32No, no, no, no, no.
06:33You can use it in school right away.
06:36Today.
06:37Thank you, Papa.
06:39He really likes it.
06:44But your father just bought this, Pinocchio.
06:47Are you certain?
06:47He changed his mind.
06:50He wants me to have a toy instead.
06:52Oh, oh.
06:53What's wrong?
06:55My nose.
06:56Must be my imagination.
06:58How much for the book?
07:00Well, I can't give as much as Geppetto paid for it.
07:03How's five coppers?
07:04That's more than I ever had.
07:07Wow, with all this money, I'll be able to buy Papa Geppetto a Christmas present too.
07:11Want me to bean him with this?
07:18No.
07:19Perish the thought.
07:20Oh, my.
07:21One, twelve, four, seventy-eleven, three.
07:26Look, I can count.
07:27Who needs an arithmetic book?
07:29He's got money.
07:31See?
07:34Hey!
07:35Fox!
07:36Cat!
07:37Where'd you fall from?
07:39Well, we were on the roof and...
07:41Wait, I'll explain things.
07:44We fell from heaven.
07:47Really?
07:49An angel spoke to us.
07:51What'd she say?
07:53She said, plant those coins of yours in the enchanted Christmas snow,
07:58and before the sun sets, they will grow into a magnificent Christmas tree
08:02covered with hundreds of gold and silver coins.
08:07Gee, thanks a lot.
08:09You really are good friends.
08:11Now I'll be rich before sundown.
08:16Gonna get lucky, knock on wood, knock on wood, knock on wood.
08:22Gonna get lucky, knock on wood, gonna be rich and famous.
08:28I'm gonna buy my daddy, lots of Christmas cheer, a brand new coat and a walk-in game.
08:39I'll buy him a new career.
08:41Gonna get lucky, knock on wood, knock on wood, gonna get lucky, knock on wood, gonna be rich and famous.
08:54I'm gonna be rich and famous.
08:55I'm gonna change my outlook, I'm gonna change my outlook.
08:56I'm gonna change my outlook to positive and up.
09:01And I'm gonna put an ounce of gold into every beggar's cunt.
09:07Do tell.
09:08Gonna get lucky, knock on wood, knock on wood, gonna get lucky, knock on wood, gonna be rich and famous.
09:20Gonna be rich and famous, gonna be rich and famous.
09:27Knock on wood, knock on wood, knock on wood.
09:31Knock on wood, knock on wood, knock on wood.
09:33Cease the knocking, my little pie nut.
09:35I will make you rich and famous.
09:37Who are you?
09:38Maestro fire eater, puppeteer extraordinaire.
09:42Ah, yes, my card.
09:44There's nothing written on it.
09:45That's okay, you can't read anyway.
09:47I'm producing a glorious Christmas extravaganza.
09:50A living marionette would be the piece de resistance.
09:53As they say in Swahili, I'll make you a star.
09:56I don't think so.
09:58Lord, help us all when puppets start to think.
10:00You want to be rich and famous, don't you?
10:02I'm rich already. The sun's almost down.
10:05Thank you very much, though. Goodbye.
10:07Drat.
10:10But why don't we wait till the tree grows
10:12and then take all the gold and silver coins?
10:15I don't understand.
10:16There isn't any tree.
10:19That was just a story to trick Pinocchio.
10:22Well, that's not very nice of the angel.
10:24There wasn't any angel.
10:27Knock on wood!
10:28Knock on wood!
10:29Quick, here he comes. Cover up the hole.
10:33Gee, where's that silver and gold Christmas tree?
10:37It didn't grow.
10:39I don't understand.
10:40The angel said that as long as the little wooden boy
10:43had never played hooky from school,
10:46it was bound to grow.
10:48Gee, I guess I played hooky lots of times.
10:51Oh, no wonder.
10:53Well, I wouldn't be surprised to find
10:55that your pennies had disappeared.
10:57Me neither, too.
11:02They're gone.
11:04Gee, no money for presents or anything.
11:08I'll never be able to buy Papa Geppetto a gift now.
11:12Unless...
11:13Why are you calling me Sir Larry Olive Tree?
11:23In the theater, you got to use a non-deplumy,
11:26as they say in Zanzibar.
11:27But what will I do out there?
11:29I'll just go out there and be funny.
11:31How do I do that?
11:32Fall down, look silly, trip over your feet.
11:35Never fear.
11:36I'll be operating the other puppets.
11:38I'll make you look good.
11:39But if I'm funny, they may laugh at me.
11:43Laugh at you?
11:44You should be that lucky.
11:45My boy, that's the whole idea.
11:47Let them laugh.
11:51Let them laugh.
11:53Let them laugh till they fall down on the floor.
11:57Let them laugh.
11:59Let them laugh.
12:00Let them laugh till their laughers get all sore.
12:04Let them ha, let them ho.
12:07Let them roar, let them go.
12:09Let them laugh, let them laugh, let them laugh.
12:12Let them hee, let them hoar.
12:14Hoop, holler, and go for.
12:16Let them laugh, let them laugh, let them laugh
12:22Let them laugh, let them laugh, let them laugh
12:26Let them laugh till their eyes are teary red
12:29Oh, let them laugh, let them laugh, let them laugh
12:33Let them laugh till they laugh themselves to bed
12:37Let them chuckle and howl, let them grunt, let them growl
12:41Let them laugh, let them laugh, let them laugh
12:44Let them snicker and start, giggle, cackle, and come forth.
12:49Let them laugh, let them laugh, let them laugh.
12:57Ow!
13:00You're laughing at me.
13:02But they are supposed to laugh.
13:04You're a wonderful actor.
13:06Yeah?
13:07Gee, you're pretty.
13:08What's your name?
13:10I am called Julieta.
13:12That's a pretty name.
13:13And if you say it's okay they laugh, it's okay with me too.
13:28Pinocchio!
13:29Pinocchio!
13:33You've never stayed out so late.
13:36Did you see a little wooden boy?
13:39Right.
13:39There's a puppet show in the town square that's got a so-called living marionette.
13:45Ah!
13:46Aha!
13:46Aha!
13:46Thank you!
13:47Thank you!
13:56Sir Larry Olive Tree.
14:01Oh, it must be another living marionette.
14:05Pinocchio!
14:06Pinocchio!
14:07Where are you, my boy?
14:12Splendid job, my little son of a sawhorse.
14:15You are a smash, suckle, buffle, as they say in gay Paris.
14:19I never would have gotten through it if it wasn't for Julieta here.
14:22Will she be with me all the time?
14:25Alas, no.
14:26I need to, um, revise her for the Christmas pageant.
14:31I'm short one wise man.
14:33But she's a pretty girl.
14:34And last week she was a dancing bear.
14:37We just changed the costume.
14:38Paint on a new face.
14:40Attach a beard.
14:41Carve a big nose.
14:42Make a fat and shave a head bald.
14:44We'll have her looking like a perfect wise man in no time.
14:47Wait, I'll get my glue and paint pots.
14:49I'll show you.
14:50Easy as pie.
14:51My dolls are troopers, they are.
14:53Oh, yes.
14:57Oh, Julieta.
14:58I know you were just a doll.
15:00But you seem like a very special friend to me.
15:03And maybe someday you will come to life, too, like I did.
15:06I don't want you fat with a big nose and a beard and a bald head.
15:10Come with me.
15:12Papa will let you stay with us.
15:13E.G.A.D.
15:17That bump on the log has purloined the ingenue.
15:21Come back, thief.
15:22Police.
15:23Come back here, you ungrateful termite father.
15:26What is the trouble, Maestro Farides?
15:29Catch, Pinocchio.
15:30He's a puppet napper, a Mario kid, a napper.
15:35Crack.
15:36There he goes.
15:38Get him.
15:38Si, senor.
15:39Fetch.
15:40Bravissimo.
15:41Fortissimo.
15:43Stay.
15:44It's not yours.
15:45You'll be safe soon.
15:47You can have Christmas with us.
15:49Our house is just around the corner.
15:50We'll never make it.
15:56Better go this way.
16:02This is going to be chilly, but we'll lose them.
16:04We are heading toward the forest of enchantment.
16:17No one goes there at night.
16:19Especially me.
16:22It's haunted.
16:23Don't be frightened now.
16:35This is the forest of enchantment.
16:36You should feel safe among the trees, my little wooden friend.
16:40This was my first home.
16:43I was a part of this forest.
16:45Just a branch on an enchanted tree.
16:48No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
16:52When the woodcutters came, I was frightened and angry.
16:56What would become of me?
16:58I was sold as firewood to old Mr. Cherry, the master carpenter.
17:02I thought, was this to be the end of me?
17:05Oh, no.
17:06You're too pretty to burn in the stove.
17:08I will turn you into a table egg.
17:11The end?
17:12My adventures were just beginning.
17:15Do you know that when an expert carpenter does his beautiful work, it tickles the wood?
17:21What was that?
17:23Oh, hearing things.
17:26A mysterious voice.
17:29It came from this piece of wood.
17:32I'm sure it did.
17:35Say something.
17:38Of course I couldn't talk yet.
17:39I had no mouth.
17:40I can't talk.
17:41I can't talk.
17:42I can't talk.
17:43It's haunted.
17:45This log is bewitched.
17:47I must get rid of it.
17:49Good day, my old friend.
17:51I've come to purchase a piece of wood.
17:54Geppetto, the woodcarver.
17:56I have a splendid piece for you.
17:59I can't pay much.
18:00For you, it's free.
18:02Take it and go.
18:08Well, I'll wager you are curious as to what you will be.
18:13Mm-hmm.
18:13Yes, I thought so.
18:17Well, I am going to make you into a marionette.
18:26Hmm?
18:27Yes.
18:28Then I can sell you to a puppeteer.
18:32Or perhaps you will be a Christmas toy.
18:38You like that?
18:41Good.
18:43Oh, bless my soul.
18:45Who am I talking to?
18:46A wooden log?
18:48Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
18:49Oh, wig.
18:51Never fits.
18:52Come on.
18:52I'll give you a saucy little mouth.
19:02Phew.
19:03Now I have something to speak with.
19:06Well, of course.
19:07Nobody can talk without a mouth.
19:10What?
19:13Who are you?
19:15Pinocchio.
19:16Oh, oh, Pinocchio.
19:18No wonder.
19:19Well, a stick of wood does not have a name.
19:25I'm no longer a stick of wood.
19:27I'm a marionette.
19:28Well, yeah, well, not until I carve the rest of you.
19:33What's wrong with me?
19:35I'd better stop.
19:37Finish me.
19:38Finish me.
19:39Yeah, of course.
19:39Of course.
19:40I'll figure it out later.
19:51There.
19:53You are complete.
19:56Ow!
19:59Why did you do that?
20:02I...
20:02I don't know.
20:04Oh, that hurt.
20:06I'm...
20:06I'm sorry.
20:07Naughty, naughty boy.
20:10No, no, no.
20:13You're a good boy.
20:14Why do you call me boy?
20:17I'm just a marionette, aren't I?
20:19Oh, Pinocchio, you are so much more.
20:26For what?
20:27I'm just a lonely man.
20:32You will be like my son,
20:35and I will be a father to you.
20:38Papa Geppetto?
20:41I will try to be a good boy,
20:43but I have a feeling it isn't going to be easy for me.
20:45And because I always got into trouble,
21:04none of the children would play with me.
21:05Finally, I made friends.
21:10The fox and the cat.
21:11They taught me things,
21:13like how to borrow apples,
21:15and tell fibs,
21:16and play hooky from school.
21:17He hasn't been in school for three days.
21:20Once someone tried to be my friend,
21:22a cricket.
21:23But all he did was preach
21:24and give advice all day.
21:26You're a mess, kid.
21:27You'll break your papa's heart.
21:30You'll end up in the pool house or jail.
21:32Take it from me.
21:33Start changing your ways.
21:35And how do I do that, sir?
21:38Put those school books of yours to good use.
21:41Okay, how's this?
21:47I'm leaving, kid.
21:49There isn't room here for the both of us,
21:51and I don't take up much room.
21:53Geppetto, what can I say?
21:55I'm sorry.
21:55Gee, I didn't mean...
22:01Oh, I'm sorry.
22:03Oh, Pinocchio.
22:05Now you've even driven
22:06my little cricket friend away.
22:09What am I to do with you?
22:15Maybe the beauty of Christmas
22:18will change his ways.
22:21But I guess it didn't,
22:22because I'm in more trouble now than ever.
22:25It was going to be
22:27such a merry Christmas, too.
22:30Will I ever see papa again?
22:35Pinocchio!
22:37Pinocchio, where are you?
22:44Pinocchio!
22:46I don't care what you've done.
22:48I forgive you, my son.
22:51Pinocchio!
22:52Pinocchio!
22:55I will pay well for that marionette.
23:02But tell me, sleigh driver,
23:04how do you know about Pinocchio?
23:06I saw him perform tonight.
23:08My master, that joke,
23:10would certainly like
23:11to give his breath
23:12such a Christmas toy.
23:14Really?
23:15Great minds work in the same...
23:18Here's the gold.
23:19Bring Pinocchio to my sleigh by tomorrow noon,
23:22without fail,
23:24if you know what's good for you.
23:30Pinocchio!
23:31You must come home!
23:34In two days, it will be Christmas!
23:36You want Pinocchio!
23:41I want Pinocchio!
23:43Everybody wants Pinocchio!
23:44My public clamors for him,
23:45but the little blackhead has absconded these parts.
23:48That's why I'm fabricating a new Pinocchio.
23:51But he's not alive!
23:53I'm hoping they won't notice.
23:55Who is it?
23:57The police!
23:58The police?
24:03Pinocchio got away.
24:05He's in the forest of enchantment.
24:07No one can find him there.
24:10The forest, eh?
24:14Isn't it supposed to be haunted?
24:17Just a silly superstition,
24:19and I'm certainly not superstitious.
24:21Are you?
24:22No, but maybe the ghosts are.
24:24There he is!
24:28Pinocchio!
24:29My old friends!
24:31Hello! Hello!
24:36Gee, do you really know how to bring Julieta to life?
24:40Not really, but...
24:41Yes, use a secret medicine called...
24:45Essence of Back to Lifodyne.
24:48I don't know if I could find that.
24:50I don't know if I could pronounce it.
24:52You must travel over seven mountains and through seven valleys to find it.
24:57There is a sleigh leaving tomorrow noon.
25:00Are you sure you're telling me the truth?
25:03Oh, Pinocchio, every word I say is the truth.
25:07Really? Really?
25:08It's the unvarnished truth, the naked truth.
25:14Oh, my lightning strike me down.
25:17It's the honest truth, the sober truth.
25:22Oh, my lightning strike me down.
25:25It's the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but.
25:30Tell you what?
25:31Here's a written guarantee.
25:34That it's the gospel truth, the straight-out truth.
25:39Oh, my lightning strike the tree.
25:42It's the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but.
25:47Tell you what?
25:48Here's a written guarantee.
25:51That it's the gospel truth, the straight-out truth.
25:55Oh, my lightning strike the tree.
25:59I'm an honest fox, so don't think me any other.
26:04He's an honest fox.
26:06You can trust him like your brother.
26:08And that's the unvarnished truth, the naked truth.
26:13Oh, my lightning strike me down.
26:17It's the honest truth, the sober truth.
26:21Oh, my lightning strike me down.
26:25It's the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but.
26:30Tell you what?
26:31Here's a written guarantee.
26:33That it's the gospel truth, the straight-out truth.
26:38Oh, my lightning strike the tree.
26:43I'm kidding.
26:44Whatever is wrong.
26:47It's the truth.
26:50Well, all right.
26:51I'll go on that sleigh ride.
26:53Oh, look.
26:57What's that?
26:59What's that?
27:01What's that?
27:02Hey, just a ghost.
27:05A ghost!
27:06Pinocchio!
27:08Pinocchio!
27:09Pinocchio!
27:20Bring Pinocchio and the girl marionette to my chalet.
27:24Hey!
27:35This better work.
27:38Ah, de-duh-de-duh-de.
27:39Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh.
27:40Duh-duh-duh-duh.
27:42Hello, folks.
27:43And I'll tell you a funny joke.
27:45A funny thing happened to me on the way to the puppet joke.
27:48Whoa.
27:49He's awful.
27:50He's not free.
27:51Unfortunately, you do not please the populace.
27:57You're through.
27:58Career finny, as they say in Borneo.
28:01You picked it seven, Sonny.
28:03Splend.
28:13Good morning, Pinocchio.
28:15Who are you?
28:17I am Lady Azora.
28:19I seem to remember.
28:21Yes, my child.
28:23I planted the seedling from which sprang the tree that gave you life.
28:27Then you are my mother?
28:29In a way, yes.
28:31And, oh, my son, I am not pleased with what I see.
28:35I have sent for a doctor to treat you.
28:38Dr. Cricket!
28:40At your service, your fairyship.
28:44Thanks, pup.
28:45It's a big jump from DeMantle, and I'm getting old.
28:48It's the cricket.
28:49Dr. Cricket, I'll thank you to use my correct moniker.
28:54Well, aren't you a sorry sight?
28:56Running away from the police?
28:58Stealing little lady puppets?
29:00No, no.
29:00It was nothing like that.
29:02Then how was it, Pinocchio?
29:04Well, and mind you, the truth.
29:07Oh, sure.
29:08Well, you see, she's really not a puppet.
29:11She's this, um, lost princess.
29:13Come off it.
29:15No, she is.
29:17What the?
29:19Go on, Pinocchio.
29:21A princess.
29:23Uh-huh.
29:23And this evil wizard placed a spell on her and turned her into wood.
29:27Oh, wow.
29:29Are you certain?
29:31You want to take that back?
29:33Uh-uh.
29:34It's his story, and he's stuck with it.
29:36Gee whiz.
29:41Do continue.
29:42And Fire Eater works for the wizard.
29:45So I had to take her and get her back to her father.
29:49So he could call out his army and capture the wizard.
29:52And we'll all live happily ever after.
29:54And that's the truth.
29:56What's happening?
29:57Your nose has grown to match the lies you tell me.
30:01But how do I get my real nose back?
30:04Simply by telling the truth.
30:06You know that.
30:08I was trying to earn money for Christmas presents at the show.
30:11And I met Julietta and wished she was alive.
30:14And Fire Eater said he was going to put whiskers on her.
30:16So I saved her and ran away and came here.
30:19And that's the truth.
30:22See?
30:23The nose knows.
30:24All this because you wanted to buy Christmas presents?
30:28Then you are not really a bad boy.
30:30Just foolish, perhaps.
30:33Foolish?
30:34You don't need gold to give a gift to someone you love.
30:39Put your love in a poem.
30:44Roses are red.
30:47Put your love in a letter.
30:51Words never said.
30:55Whisper loud when you're feeling shy.
31:03Sing of love and the world will cry.
31:11Save your love for a present.
31:16Give it away the perfect gift for Christmas Day.
31:34I'll try.
31:36Try hard, my little wooden head.
31:38Change your ways.
31:40And perhaps your Julietta will come to life.
31:43Really?
31:43Especially if she has something to live for.
31:47I'll start now.
31:48Thank you, ma'am.
31:49Take care of Julietta till I come back.
31:53Goodbye, friends.
31:54You just watch me now.
31:56Ha, ha, ha, ha.
31:58If you don't mind, ma'am,
32:00I'd like to stick close to him
32:01and kind of see that he does right.
32:03I owe it to his papa.
32:05You may guide him,
32:07but the decisions must be his own.
32:10It's a deal.
32:10Pinocchio!
32:22Pinocchio!
32:25What has happened to you?
32:29No more life.
32:31Oh, I'm too late.
32:35Too late.
32:36Oh, ho, ho, ho.
32:38Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho.
32:47In this house you came to life,
32:52and here you will rest.
32:55Came to life.
32:58Remember that first night
33:01how you tickled me
33:03and kicked my pants?
33:05I sit here reminiscing, but part of me is missing.
33:13My little wooden boy has gone away.
33:20He loved to sit and hear me sing.
33:25He loved to join off-key.
33:29He loved to dance.
33:31He loved to laugh.
33:33He loved to simply be.
33:39When he was good, he was very, very good.
33:48When he was bad, he was very, very bad.
33:57But through it all, he was the very, very best friend I ever had.
34:15He loved to tell his childish lies until he made me mad.
34:24And then, of course, he'd cry and say, I'm sorry I was bad.
34:34When he was good, he was very, very good.
34:44When he was bad, he was very, very bad.
34:54But through it all, he was the very, very best friend I ever had.
35:16Papa!
35:17Papa Geppetto!
35:19I'm home in time for Christmas Eve tonight!
35:29Good morning, Pinocchio.
35:31Morning!
35:32Glad to see he's back.
35:35He's back!
35:37Pinocchio, where are you going?
35:41Home.
35:42No, I don't think so.
35:45This way, my friend.
35:46But I've got to go home.
35:48Home?
35:49And what about the sleigh that's waiting for you?
35:52What sleigh?
35:53The one to take him to get the medicine to bring Julieta to L-I-F-E.
35:58Oh, you know what sleigh?
36:01Oh, that sleigh.
36:03Oh, I don't need that stuff.
36:06I've got a better way.
36:08But you can't go home without Christmas presents.
36:12Oh, no.
36:13Tonight is Christmas Eve.
36:15I've got the best Christmas present in the world, right here in my heart.
36:19No, no, no.
36:20This will never do.
36:22It won't?
36:23What you've got to do is to go to the North Pole to see Santa Claus.
36:29Why?
36:30Because Santa will give him lots of good things to give his father.
36:34Will you stop interrupting?
36:37But, Mr. Fox, I've changed my ways.
36:39From now on, everything I get I will work for.
36:42Well, I'm overwhelmed.
36:45Well, you can work at the North Pole.
36:49You can help Santa Claus.
36:51Oh, how can a silly puppet help Santa?
36:54You can teach the other toys how to dance.
36:57Will you please be quiet?
36:59You can teach the other toys how to dance.
37:03I can see it all now.
37:06The toys await you knowing you will teach them skills which will win the hearts of children everywhere.
37:13Company, fifth position please.
37:16Now dancing is very simple.
37:18Just follow me.
37:20Dancing.
37:22Let's go dancing.
37:24Dancing.
37:26Let's go dancing.
37:29Let's go dancing.
37:31Dancing, dancing, dancing.
37:34Come on dancing feet.
37:37Come on dancing feet.
37:40Get up on the beat.
37:45Let's go dancin', dancin', dancin', dancin'
37:52Come on dancin' feet, come on dancin' feet
37:57Get up on the beat, get up on the beat
38:01Come on dancin' feet
38:04That's it, you're gettin' there
38:07Yeah, yeah, yeah
38:09Let's go!
38:15Dancin'
38:29Dancin'
38:30Let's go dancin'
38:32Dancin'
38:33Dancin'
38:34Dancin'
38:35Let's go dancin'
38:37Dancin'
38:38Let's go dancin'
38:39Dancin'
38:40Dancin'
38:41Dancin'
38:42Come on, dancin' feet, come on, dancin' feet, get up on the beat, get up on the beat, come on, dancin' feet, dancin' feet, let's go dancin', dancin', dancin', wooah!
39:02Seems like fun. Are you sure that's what I should do?
39:06He's your friend, Pinocchio. Would he lead you astray?
39:10I... I... I guess not.
39:13May lightning...
39:14Cancel that order.
39:21Come, lad, sleigh leaves for the North Pole at noon. We're off to Santa.
39:27All aboard! All aboard! All aboard for the...
39:41The North Pole!
39:41How's that?
39:43You are going to the North Pole, aren't you?
39:48My regards to the Duke.
39:51He'll be very appreciative.
39:54Have a good time, Pinocchio.
39:56Oh, he's going to have a swell time. In fact, I bet he'll never want to come back.
40:04Oh, but I've got to come back by tonight.
40:11Faster, boys, faster!
40:14Soon we'll be at the North Pole. You'll hear Sandy Claws laugh. Ha, ha, ha!
40:19You mean, ho, ho, ho!
40:22Simple glee is ho, ho, ho.
40:27Not the glee for me.
40:30Wicked glee is ha, ha, ha!
40:35That's wicked glee.
40:40Ha, wicked glee.
40:43Ha, ha, ha for me.
40:45Ha, wicked glee.
40:48Ha, ha, ha, for me.
40:52Ha, wicked glee.
40:54Ha, ha, ha, for me.
40:58We're here!
41:00But where are the elves?
41:02And the toy workshop?
41:03Where's the reindeer?
41:05This doesn't look like Santa's castle at the North Pole.
41:09Maybe that's because it isn't.
41:12Ha, ha, ha, ha!
41:14Where are you taking me?
41:16I should have gone home to Papa.
41:19He should have.
41:21He should have.
41:22Now he thinks of it.
41:28You'd think the Duke would like to see what he's paying for.
41:32Let me out of here!
41:36Quiet.
41:37The sticker says don't open till Christmas.
41:40The Duke is away on state business.
41:43He's always away.
41:45He can only spare three minutes tonight, Christmas Eve, to be with his children.
41:50And now our business is finished.
41:53This way, if you please.
41:55A fine kettle of fish.
42:00I hope you're satisfied.
42:02Get me out!
42:03Just a minute.
42:06Oops.
42:07It looks like a present from Father, Jeremy.
42:10Probably like his other presents.
42:12Better not leave.
42:14Father will be passing through for Christmas soon.
42:16Yeah.
42:17We don't want to miss him.
42:18Merry Christmas and all that nonsense.
42:21Father!
42:21Now, now, no time for sentiment.
42:24Open your present.
42:25I've got three whole wonderful minutes to spend with you.
42:27Then I must be off on affairs of state.
42:30Yes, sir.
42:31Hurry now.
42:32Only two minutes left.
42:35Boy, it was stuffy in there.
42:38See?
42:38A living marionette.
42:40The only one in the world.
42:42Very, very nice.
42:44Very interesting.
42:46Only nice?
42:47Merely interesting?
42:49Do you know what that cost me?
42:50Oh, well, I must be off.
42:53You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
42:55Hear now.
42:57Christmas presents do not talk back to nobility.
43:00Do you think it's what a present costs that counts?
43:04I should have gotten a nice, polite choo-choo train.
43:08What do you suggest?
43:11How about a little something from your heart?
43:14Put your love in a poem, roses are read.
43:22Put your love in a letter, words never said.
43:28Whisper love when you're feeling shy.
43:33Sing of love and the world will cry.
43:41Save your love for a present.
43:44Give it away.
43:47Your hat and coat, your grace.
44:00You'll miss your train.
44:02Put them back in the closet.
44:04You know I always stay home for Christmas Day.
44:07Really, Father?
44:08It took a puppet to show me what Christmas really is.
44:12Merry Christmas, my little ones.
44:15Merry Christmas, Father.
44:20Well, son, you sure came through like a champ.
44:24Yeah, but how will I get home in time for Christmas?
44:28Papa is so far away.
44:30Lady Azura, maybe you could give us a hand,
44:33seeing as how you're magic and all.
44:35Oh, the boy deserves a break.
44:41Ho, ho, ho, ho!
44:43Uh-oh, that's Sleigh Driver again.
44:46No, he goes ha, ha, ha.
44:49That's ho, ho, ho.
44:52Santa, look!
44:57Next up, Geppetto's workshop.
44:59Anyone need a lift?
45:01Ho, ho, ho!
45:05I'm sure I heard something.
45:31It was just Santa Claus, Papa.
45:33Go back to sleep.
45:34Oh, that's all it was.
45:38Santa Claus?
45:42Pinocchio!
45:44Merry Christmas, Papa!
45:46Merry Christmas!
45:47My Christmas present is a promise
45:49that I'll go to school and obey you
45:51and always be good.
45:52Oh, ho, ho!
45:53My beautiful Pinocchio!
45:56Oh!
45:58Ah, home again.
46:01Now what?
46:04Oh, Papa, look!
46:05Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
46:09It's Lady Azura, Papa, the fairy with the hair of blue.
46:14And, oh, look!
46:15My friend Julietta, she's come to life!
46:18Who?
46:19She can live with us, can't she, Papa?
46:22Good heavens!
46:23Two of them!
46:24Julietta!
46:26Are you Pinocchio?
46:28How?
46:31I had a reason to be me.
46:34Come, everyone!
46:36Poodles and monkeys, too!
46:39Christmas breakfast is ready!
46:41Oh, I hope Lady Azura likes oatmeal.
46:47It's all I have.
46:52A Christmas toast.
46:55With oatmeal?
46:56To all of us on Christmas.
46:59May we never change.
47:01Especially you, knock on wood.
47:07Lady Azura, can you see in the future?
47:09Will I always be this way?
47:12You will try to be a good boy, but it will not be easy.
47:17You will be led astray again, but that is life.
47:21All of us stray at times.
47:24Yes, my little one, there will be other misadventures.
47:29And you will think all is lost.
47:32But remember what this Christmas has taught,
47:34and you will not stray too far.
47:36Then someday, a long time from now.
47:41What?
47:43Even I cannot promise miracles.
47:46If it happens, you will know.
47:50Oh, but all that is in the future.
47:54Let us live one day at a time.
47:57And what better day than Christmas?
48:00To Christmas!
48:02To Christmas!
48:03To Christmas!
48:05Ha, ha, ha, ha!
48:35Ha, ha, ha!
49:05Ha, ha, ha!
