"Pinocchio" started its life as an 100-some paged 1883 Italian novella by Carlo Collodi. Walt Disney was introduced to the story by one of his staff during production on "Snow White," and he loved it so much he made it his next film.
Given the greater length of the original "Pinocchio" than, say, one of the Brothers Grimms' super short stories, I don't have the space to do a full compare/contrast between the Disney film and its source text. What I'll do instead is list the most notable differences between the two versions.




"Drunk at the matinee" is a collection of candid poetry about stupid shit that we all experience from day to day.
