1
00:00:58,380 --> 00:01:05,180
Once upon a time a lonely woman planted a rare seed given her by a kind sorceress,
2
00:01:05,180 --> 00:01:15,540
then waited to see what would happen.
What happened was wonderful!
3
00:01:15,540 --> 00:01:20,780
A delicate little girl no bigger than
a thumb blossomed from the flower.
4
00:01:20,780 --> 00:01:29,420
The Lonely Woman called the tiny girl Thumbelina.
5
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:44,420
Oh, what a pretty little girl! And so tiny! Hello!
6
00:01:44,420 --> 00:01:52,780
That's you, Thumbelina.
Me? Oh, it is me! Look, it's me! Look,
7
00:01:52,780 --> 00:01:59,340
it's me! Look, it's me!
Dear tiny Thumbelina!
8
00:02:20,780 --> 00:02:25,660
The Lonely Woman was overjoyed
to have a companion at last.
9
00:02:25,660 --> 00:02:33,420
She did her very best to make tiny Thumbelina feel
safe and comfortable in the huge world around her.
10
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:38,940
And although she knew this world was not the
one to which she truly belonged, Thumbelina
11
00:02:38,940 --> 00:02:54,140
was quite content to call this place her home.
In front of the home where Thumbelina lived
12
00:02:54,140 --> 00:02:59,060
there ran a lazy brook which flowed
smoothly into the nearby river.
13
00:02:59,060 --> 00:03:13,980
Near the mired and slimy shores of the river
lived a Mother Frog and her bug-eyed son.
14
00:03:13,980 --> 00:03:29,260
We have eaten, now let's go to sleep!
We have slept, now let us eat!
15
00:03:34,460 --> 00:03:42,500
We have eaten, now let's go back to sleep!
I don't want to go to sleep. I'm
16
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:48,620
tired of sleeping.
Tired of sleeping?
17
00:03:51,580 --> 00:03:57,420
So, now we can eat again.
No, I'm tired of eating.
18
00:03:57,420 --> 00:04:03,620
So why don't you try something new, like walking?
I'm tired of walking.
19
00:04:03,620 --> 00:04:09,300
How can you be tired of walking when
you've never even tried to do it?
20
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:15,060
I get tired just thinking about it. Mom!
I know what you need, son.
21
00:04:15,060 --> 00:04:21,459
I'll catch you a big juicy butterfly.
I don't want a butterfly.
22
00:04:21,459 --> 00:04:29,220
What I really would like to do is get married.
I know just the girl for you.
23
00:04:34,340 --> 00:04:39,060
Back in the house where Thumbelina lived,
the tiny girl lay nestled comfortably in
24
00:04:39,060 --> 00:04:44,260
the soft bed the Lonely Woman had fashioned
from a walnut shell, cushioned by violets
25
00:04:44,260 --> 00:04:51,500
and warmed by a rose petal blanket.
So comfortable was she that her sleep
26
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:59,140
went undisturbed by the sound of Mother
Frog hopping through the open window.
27
00:05:25,020 --> 00:05:32,780
Stop singing, look what I have for you.
A walnut. I hate walnuts.
28
00:05:32,780 --> 00:05:38,860
Not a walnut, a wife.
Now be quiet, or you'll wake her up.
29
00:05:38,860 --> 00:05:44,700
So, what do you think, she's pretty, huh?
Where did you get her, mom?
30
00:05:44,700 --> 00:05:53,900
Almost as pretty as you are, but not very green.
Don't worry, she'll soon change to green.
31
00:05:53,900 --> 00:05:59,860
Living with frogs like us will turn anyone green.
I'll set her out on the lily pad so she can't
32
00:05:59,860 --> 00:06:04,060
run away from her happiness.
You get yourself ready, son.
33
00:06:04,060 --> 00:06:29,060
What do I have to get ready for, mom?
You know I'm already perfect. And I need my sleep.
34
00:06:30,660 --> 00:06:37,740
Oh, where am I? How did I get here?
Did you bring me here,
35
00:06:37,740 --> 00:06:47,380
frog? What are you going to do with me?
You are going to marry my son, you lucky girl!
36
00:06:47,380 --> 00:06:52,940
I don't want to marry him.
You haven't seen him yet. He's handsome!
37
00:06:52,940 --> 00:06:58,620
He has great big beautiful bug
buggy eyes, just like mine.
38
00:06:58,620 --> 00:07:03,740
And besides that, he likes you.
I want to go home.
39
00:07:03,740 --> 00:07:10,140
You will go home. After the wedding your
home will be with my big bug-eyed son.
40
00:07:10,140 --> 00:07:14,100
But I don't belong in a river.
Oh, you'll love it here.
41
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:24,260
This is the quietest
neighborhood on the whole river.
42
00:07:24,260 --> 00:07:33,500
You'll meet my son at the wedding and
fall instantly in love. Sleep well.
43
00:07:40,420 --> 00:07:54,100
Take me home, please!
Take me home, please!
44
00:07:54,100 --> 00:07:58,020
Do you taste that?
What?
45
00:07:58,020 --> 00:08:02,220
The water tastes salty.
Taste it!
46
00:08:02,220 --> 00:08:05,460
The water tastes salty.
That's what I said. I hope
47
00:08:05,460 --> 00:08:12,260
our River isn't becoming salty.
That would be bad, would it?
48
00:08:12,260 --> 00:08:18,220
Let's go up and take a look around.
Ah, that's just a tiny girl.
49
00:08:18,220 --> 00:08:23,860
Tomorrow I am to be married.
That's too bad. Or is it good?
50
00:08:23,860 --> 00:08:39,860
I'm to marry a frog.
No, that's terrible! We'll set you free. Come on!
51
00:08:39,860 --> 00:08:44,340
Too bad we don't have teeth, or do we?
Let's go ask the crawdad if
52
00:08:44,340 --> 00:08:58,940
he could cut the stalk.
Good idea or is it?
53
00:09:00,260 --> 00:09:04,340
All right, time to get up!
Remember, this is your wedding day.
54
00:09:04,340 --> 00:09:16,100
I can't get married on an empty stomach.
Are you there, crawdad? We need you to
55
00:09:16,100 --> 00:09:21,620
bite something for us, please.
No, thanks. I already ate.
56
00:09:21,620 --> 00:09:26,260
We need you to bite, not eat.
We need you to bite a lily stalk
57
00:09:26,260 --> 00:09:33,300
to help a poor little girl escape.
I do not like lily stalks or girls.
58
00:09:33,300 --> 00:09:41,500
But the frogs want her to marry against her will.
Why didn't you tell me that in the first place?
59
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:48,340
I am one of those crawfishes who
are against unwilling marriages.
60
00:09:48,340 --> 00:09:58,820
One must marry for love. Lead me to the girl!
61
00:10:01,420 --> 00:10:14,140
Oh, dear! Whatever shall I do?
I have eaten, now let's get me
62
00:10:14,140 --> 00:10:30,620
married. Show me the way.
Oh, dear! He's almost here!
63
00:10:30,620 --> 00:10:37,500
Hurry, hurry! We're almost there.
I'm here.
64
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:41,500
Cut it!
Wow!
65
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:45,620
I'm free!
Wait!
66
00:10:45,620 --> 00:10:51,380
Oh, no! They're following me!
After her, son!
67
00:10:51,380 --> 00:11:07,980
What will I do? Help, someone,
please, help! Help! Help!
68
00:11:07,980 --> 00:11:15,140
Please, help me! The frog wants to marry me.
I hate that frog. He loves
69
00:11:15,140 --> 00:11:23,260
to eat butterflies. Hold on!
Come back! You must marry my son!
70
00:11:23,260 --> 00:11:30,580
He'll be so disappointed if you don't.
Go faster, faster! Faster,
71
00:11:30,580 --> 00:11:43,500
please! They're catching up!
Oh, no! Please, help, someone, help me!
72
00:11:43,500 --> 00:11:53,060
Help me! Help! Help me, please!
Bring her back, you thief!
73
00:11:53,060 --> 00:12:01,580
Forget it, mom! Let's eat.
Thank you! Who are you?
74
00:12:01,580 --> 00:12:14,700
Jo… Joseph, a gentleman. And this is where I live.
Oh, it's very high up here.
75
00:12:14,700 --> 00:12:22,060
My home is just as I like it, gentle
lady! You are welcome to stay.
76
00:12:22,060 --> 00:12:28,340
You want me to live with you?
Oh, I would love just that, gentle lady!
77
00:12:28,340 --> 00:12:37,220
I would just love you to be my gorgeous wife!
I would rather go home, but I don't
78
00:12:37,220 --> 00:12:47,180
know where that is.
Just think about it.
79
00:12:47,180 --> 00:12:58,620
Gentleman never presses a lady.
All right, now let's take a walk, shall we?
80
00:13:23,060 --> 00:13:25,860
What is that?
Where are her wings?
81
00:13:25,860 --> 00:13:28,300
Weird looking creature!
Not one of us.
82
00:13:28,300 --> 00:13:32,220
She doesn’t belong here.
Can you believe it?
83
00:13:32,220 --> 00:13:40,300
Joe brought a girl with the waist.
And only has two legs, not eight.
84
00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:46,380
Shocking!
She doesn't have any feelers!
85
00:13:46,380 --> 00:13:52,380
Forget about her feelers, she has no thorax!
86
00:13:52,380 --> 00:14:08,460
Hey! Horrible! Sad! Revolting! Whatever.
Insects, grab your partners! Ladies’ choice.
87
00:14:08,460 --> 00:14:13,420
May I?
I suppose.
88
00:14:13,420 --> 00:14:21,300
Why, Jo? You poor thing! However did you get
stuck with such a wretched little creature?
89
00:14:21,300 --> 00:14:27,060
I can barely stand to look at her. Her
lack of arms and legs is appalling!
90
00:14:27,060 --> 00:14:51,620
Just turn me away from her, just turn me away!
Gentle lady, come!
91
00:14:51,620 --> 00:14:55,340
What's the matter, Joseph?
I'm sorry, but you are just going
92
00:14:55,340 --> 00:14:57,900
to have to leave.
But why?
93
00:14:57,900 --> 00:15:02,180
Because, dear little lady,
no one here likes you but me.
94
00:15:02,180 --> 00:15:13,140
You don't belong here.
All that summer Thumbelina
95
00:15:13,140 --> 00:15:17,700
lived alone in the big forest.
Weaving a soft bed for herself
96
00:15:17,700 --> 00:15:24,660
from the tall grass, she hung it beneath a large
burdock leaf to shield herself from the rains.
97
00:15:24,660 --> 00:15:31,580
For food she ate the sweet pollen from the summer
flowers and drank the water of the morning dew.
98
00:15:31,580 --> 00:15:36,660
And thus the summer passed.
And the fall passed quickly too, bringing on
99
00:15:36,660 --> 00:15:54,460
its heels the bitter cold and icy winds of winter.
Oh how she longed to go home!
100
00:15:54,460 --> 00:16:01,980
But poor Thumbelina no longer knew where home was.
All she knew for sure was that she must find
101
00:16:01,980 --> 00:16:06,740
someone to help her soon, or
she would die of the cold.
102
00:16:06,740 --> 00:16:15,060
It's so cold, so cold!
Who is that dancing on my roof?
103
00:16:15,060 --> 00:16:21,580
I didn't know this mound was anybody's home.
Anybody? I'm not just anybody.
104
00:16:21,580 --> 00:16:25,900
I'm miss Grey Mouse.
You come now, come with me!
105
00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:36,820
You might as well warm yourself
inside. You'll make less noise.
106
00:16:36,820 --> 00:16:41,460
Why are you crying?
I'm so cold!
107
00:16:41,460 --> 00:16:46,260
Crying won't warm you.
And I'm so hungry!
108
00:16:46,260 --> 00:16:58,340
Then you should eat.
Oh, thank you! I don't eat much.
109
00:17:00,580 --> 00:17:07,579
There, now I am warm and full, thank you!
If that's all it takes to fill you up,
110
00:17:07,579 --> 00:17:13,659
you must stay with me all winter and
you will become my little helper.
111
00:17:13,660 --> 00:17:18,220
May I come in?
Ah, it's Myron Mole. Come in.
112
00:17:18,220 --> 00:17:24,180
Sit down, sir Mole, how are you feeling?
I am tired.
113
00:17:24,180 --> 00:17:28,340
What were you doing?
I was counting all my riches.
114
00:17:29,060 --> 00:17:36,420
I have so much that I can't keep count.
What you need is a little helper.
115
00:17:36,420 --> 00:17:41,180
He would probably steal from me.
Not if she were your wife.
116
00:17:41,180 --> 00:17:47,860
Thumbelina, put these on and go outside.
I want to speak to Myron in private.
117
00:17:47,860 --> 00:18:02,460
Here, wear this blanket, it's cold out there.
If you want my opinion, Myron, what you
118
00:18:02,460 --> 00:18:07,900
really need is a good wife.
You have to feed a wife,
119
00:18:07,900 --> 00:18:15,020
then wives always eat much too much.
Some wives eat only half a seed once a day.
120
00:18:15,020 --> 00:18:22,940
Huh, fairy tales!
Not fairy tales, the truth. Listen…
121
00:18:22,940 --> 00:18:28,260
Goodness, what's that?
A bird.
122
00:18:29,420 --> 00:18:37,140
Poor thing! She shouldn't be here.
She doesn't belong this far north,
123
00:18:37,140 --> 00:18:43,620
she'll die of the cold.
Oh! Oh, oh,
124
00:18:43,620 --> 00:18:58,220
no! She's falling! Oh, my!
Like ice she's frozen.
125
00:19:02,220 --> 00:19:27,700
Thump, thump, thump. She's alive!
I'll warm her.
126
00:19:27,700 --> 00:19:39,340
Marriage? I'll think about it.
She only eats half a seed a day.
127
00:19:39,340 --> 00:19:51,660
That's not too bad. I'll marry.
But wait, let's see how much is that a year.
128
00:19:51,660 --> 00:20:06,820
365 days. 182 and a half seeds a year.
That's an awful lot of seeds in a year.
129
00:20:06,820 --> 00:20:17,780
No, no, no, I won't marry, no.
All winter long Thumbelina tended
130
00:20:17,780 --> 00:20:23,900
to the swallow, snuggled warmly in
the hut she had fashioned from twigs.
131
00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:27,660
Grey Mouse kept her busy
with chores, but Thumbelina
132
00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:37,300
was never too tired to tend to her friend.
At last, winter was over and it was time for
133
00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:49,900
the swallow to wake up for spring.
There.
134
00:20:49,900 --> 00:20:56,020
Wake up now!
Wake up!
135
00:20:56,020 --> 00:21:07,140
Spring is here, dear swallow! Feel the Sun!
Ah, springtime!
136
00:21:07,140 --> 00:21:11,140
If it wasn't for you, I would
never see this sunlight.
137
00:21:11,140 --> 00:21:16,820
Oh, thank you, sweet child, and be happy!
138
00:21:16,820 --> 00:21:28,020
Goodbye!
Be happy too, swallow!
139
00:21:31,140 --> 00:21:36,380
All that spring and through the summer
Myron Mole spent counting and thinking,
140
00:21:36,380 --> 00:21:41,740
thinking and counting.
Finally he decided to marry.
141
00:21:41,740 --> 00:21:46,460
Goodness, this is your lucky
day, my child! Guess what?
142
00:21:46,460 --> 00:21:54,980
Sir Mole just asked to marry you.
In only a month you will be his wife.
143
00:21:54,980 --> 00:21:58,020
I understand. You're overwhelmed.
144
00:22:01,940 --> 00:22:07,700
On the day of Thumbelina's wedding to Sir
Mole, the tiny bride looked beautiful.
145
00:22:07,700 --> 00:22:14,700
Though her face was filled with sadness.
Ah, here he comes! And he wants to give
146
00:22:14,700 --> 00:22:22,060
you a wedding gift.
What do you wish?
147
00:22:22,060 --> 00:22:27,100
I would like to say goodbye to the Sun.
Strange wish.
148
00:22:27,100 --> 00:22:38,460
But if that's what you want, go and say goodbye.
But come back here as soon as you're done.
149
00:22:38,460 --> 00:22:50,540
Why would anyone want to say goodbye to the Sun?
Goodbye, beautiful Sun! I will
150
00:22:50,540 --> 00:22:58,060
never see your light again.
I must try to make a home for myself
151
00:22:58,060 --> 00:23:04,620
s in the dark world underground.
Goodbye!
152
00:23:04,620 --> 00:23:10,580
Thumbelina!
Swallow! Oh, oh!
153
00:23:10,580 --> 00:23:14,460
I'm happy to see you, my dear!
Where are you flying to?
154
00:23:14,460 --> 00:23:19,300
To a warm place.
Please, take me with you!
155
00:23:19,300 --> 00:23:24,540
I'd be happy to.
Ah! What are you
156
00:23:24,540 --> 00:23:31,100
doing? Come back here, come back! Ah!
Come back, it's your wedding day!
157
00:23:31,100 --> 00:23:33,420
You marry him!
Stop this minute, stop, you!
158
00:23:33,420 --> 00:23:38,607
You are the two who belong together.
Stop, come back here!
159
00:23:38,607 --> 00:23:39,210
Our wedding!
What's going shoot?
160
00:23:39,210 --> 00:23:44,500
Where are you? Come back! This is an outrage!
Can you see what's happening?
161
00:23:44,500 --> 00:23:49,620
I can't see anything.
Kind Swallow carried tiny Thumbelina far
162
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:56,100
away from her unhappy life beneath the ground.
To where she was not sure.
163
00:23:56,100 --> 00:24:01,500
She wished the bird could take her back to
the huge house with the kind Lonely Woman,
164
00:24:01,500 --> 00:24:07,220
back to her walnut-shell bed and
the place she had once called home.
165
00:24:07,220 --> 00:24:13,740
Yet in her heart she carried a secret dream that
perhaps this warm place the swallow spoke of would
166
00:24:13,740 --> 00:24:26,220
be even better than her old home.
Welcome to my winter home, child!
167
00:24:26,220 --> 00:24:32,780
Choose the most beautiful flower
you can find and make it your own.
168
00:24:32,780 --> 00:24:45,580
My own perch will be close by, over there.
It's also perfect, swallow. Thank you, thank you!
169
00:24:45,580 --> 00:24:50,500
Suddenly the flowers opened and out to
greet her swarmed a group of tiny fairies,
170
00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:55,740
no bigger than Thumbelina herself.
Thumbelina was overcome with the wonderful
171
00:24:55,740 --> 00:25:03,980
sensation that at last she was home.
What is your name, beautiful?
172
00:25:03,980 --> 00:25:07,780
Thumbelina.
Thumbelina!
173
00:25:07,780 --> 00:25:20,060
Thumbelina! Ah, what a perfectly lovely name!
Please, be my wife, Thumbelina! You must.
174
00:25:20,060 --> 00:25:27,820
If you say no, I'll die of
loneliness. Ah, I'm dying!
175
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:40,020
Don't die! Yes, I will marry you.
And so Thumbelina had finally found
176
00:25:40,020 --> 00:25:46,980
her rightful place in this big wide world.
Her heart was filled with the joy of knowing
177
00:25:46,980 --> 00:25:57,740
that this was where she truly belonged
and that she would never be lonely again.
