We make men without chests and expect of them virtue... We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.

Rated G for some thematic elephants


Picture from the official Horton Hears A Who movie site; note- I haven't yet seen the movie so this post does not constitute a recommendation
Credit for the picture/title idea goes to Michael.

This is a somewhat delayed comment, but as I have now seen Horton Hears a Who, I thought I should put in very briefly what I thought about it.

Overall, it was a very good movie. There were parts of it that weren't my favorite, or that grossly misrepresented the victim(s) of the jokes-- for example, the homeschool jokes-- but that is largely outweighed by the positive. Horton's maxim is a good one to remember: "A person is a person no matter how small." (On that subject, I encourage you to visit this website: http://www.abort73.com/) The value of each individual person was also strongly portrayed.

It was a funny, clean movie that just about any age should be able to enjoy. :)
