Satire is used by many famous writers to create humor and to criticize people’s unwise, and senseless actions. As George Orwell once said, "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." (Orwell, 1945).

I admire your post, fantasy films like Pinocchio, do teach children moral values. However, truth, courage, and selflessness are a lot for a young child to learn without a ton of bumps in the process.

The films and genres are different and the same, in real life a wooden puppet would never come to life.
In the article Thirty-Eight Who Saw Murder Didn 't Call Police, author Martin Gansberg recalls the events that occurred on the night of March 13, 1964. "38 respectful, law abiding citizens" (120) stood idle as Kitty Genovese was hunted down on three separate occasions and murdered.
