Burton’s “Dumbo” Depression

Tim Burton to Deadline: “My history is that I started out [at Disney]. I was hired and fired like several times throughout my career there.

Dumbo is why I think my days with Disney are done. That movie is quite autobiographical on a certain level [because] I realized that I was Dumbo, that I was working in this horrible big circus, and I needed to escape.”
