No matter how small, a person is a 'person.'
And that exactly is the attitude we lack today. Today, as it stands, a person is no one but 'myself.' It all comes back to my 'self' at the end of the day.
But this amazing movie has beautifully portrayed the true spirit of love, trust, friendship and responsibility. Horton's (the elephant) efforts in saving an entire civilization, that appears to him nothing bigger than a speck on a clover, is so moving. The jungle questions his craziness because Horton believes there IS a world in the speck and that he heard voices from the world. Whoville's mayor, on the other hand, is questioned on his craziness because no 'who' in Whoville believes that an elephant is holding their world and that they just a tiny little speck!
But Horton and the mayor have great trust in each other and both their intentions direct towards one goal, saving Whoville from any impending danger.
An evil kangaroo, who does not want anybody questioning the current beliefs and fearing that the jungle mates may think beyond the possible, plans to destroy the speck but Horton diligently goes on to save the tiny little Whoville, because he believes no matter how small one may be, a person is a person!
Astounding sound effects and animation and an extremely thrilling climax.
Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears A Who: The movie is a must watch for kids and adults alike.
