I agree with the message, but I just can’t watch that clip of Mickey, Donald, and Goofy being so destitute and downtrodden without getting intensely sad. To whomever hasn’t seen the original animation this is from, prepare to feel worse than the opening of “Up” when you finally look this up.
It’s from the start of Mickey and the magic beanstalk. The voiceover really ups the misery by talking about how they’re destitute and their spirits are broken, and Donald and Goofy both go delirious from the hunger at one point.
Of course, after that tear jerker the typical Disney magic sets in again and the whole thing is largely played for laughs, but those first few minutes are intensely sad IMHO.

I might regret, but, source?
The Disney version of The Three Musketeers, iirc.
