Jiminy Cricket is the deuteragonist of the 1940 Disney animated feature film, Pinocchio. He is a wisecracking, anthropomorphic cricket that is depicted donning a top hat and tailcoat, with an umbrella always on his person. Jiminy was appointed Pinocchio's official conscience by the Blue Fairy, in hopes that Jiminy can guide Pinocchio on his journey to become a real boy. Notable for being the original performer of "When You Wish Upon a Star" (which would become the trademark anthem for The Walt Disney Company), Jiminy has appeared alongside Mickey Mouse and Tinker Bell as a company mascot throughout the years.read more
