Billy Rose's Jumbo is a 1962 American musical film released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and starring Doris Day, Stephen Boyd, Jimmy Durante, and Martha Raye.

An adaptation of the stage musical Jumbo produced by Billy Rose, the film was directed by Charles Walters, written by Sidney Sheldon, and featured Busby Berkeley's choreography.

Original producer Billy Rose stipulated that if a film version was ever made, he must be credited in the title, even if he were not personally involved.

Despite featuring such Rodgers and Hart standards as "My Romance" and "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World", neither the original play nor the film was especially successful.

This comedy bit was reprised in his role in Billy Rose's Jumbo and is likely to have contributed to the popularity of the idiom, the "elephant in the room".

Noble has been quietly buying up the IOUs with Sam's help and abruptly takes control of the family's business, leaving the Wonders without a show.

[1] Bosley Crowther opened his December 7, 1962 pan in The Nee York Times by observing: “The only thing vastly wrong, with "Jumbo," …”is that it is hitting the screen about 25 years late…” He credits the picture with “a certain graphic glamor and innocent nostalgic charm..and occasional rowdy humor …otherwise it is unoriginal, solemn, sluggish and slow.”.
