Pinocchio is a classic children’s fairytale that is now being reprised in new bluray format for its 70th anniversary.

The famous Walt Disney animation follows the story of a young puppet boy who must learn real virtues in order to complete his transformation into a real boy.

One day on his way to school, Pinocchio is waylaid by a ruthless, wily fox named John Worthington Foulfellow and then sold to a powerful individual called Stromboli.

Pinocchio’s challenge is to escape from Stromboli, a puppet master who makes lots of money from Pinocchio’s fantastic live puppet performances.

To prevent Pinocchio from escaping and returning home, Stromboli locks him in a birdcage. The Blue Fairy arrives and, after seeing Pinocchio’s nose grow from lies he tells, releases him from the cage.

Pinocchio escapes but is again sidetracked, this time to an evil amusement park called Pleasure Island where boys can do whatever they want but eventually grow into donkeys and are made to be slaves.

How does Pinocchio escape this time? Will he ever become a real boy?

The latest Pinocchio bluray is a celebration of a classic animation that has thrilled generations and told millions about the virtues of good behaviour.
