Inventor Gepetto creates a wooden
marionette called Pinocchio. His wish that Pinocchio be real boy is unexpectedly
granted by a fairy. The fairy assigns Jiminy Cricket to act as Pinocchio's
"conscience" and keep him out of trouble. Jiminy is not too successful
in this endeavor and most of the film is spent with Pinocchio deep in trouble.
Pinocchio, Disney's 2nd feature film, came to the
screen on February 7, 1940.
