Such a beautiful movie


If this movie had the Disney stamp on it, it would have had much more success. Agree or not? (Same goes for Anastasia, but that's something for another board)

I agree it's a beautiful movie. As for having more success if it had the Disney stamp? Maybe.

reply

No, because it didn't have Disney quality.

I saw Thumbelina when my class went on a school field trip to the mall where we had a day at the movies and we got to see Thumbelina and my parents went with us too but I didn't want my parents sitting with me because I would be embarassed so I sat with my teacher and from the moment I watched Thumbelina I was enchanted by it and I was impressed at how well this movie looked considering it was a Don Bluth directed film. And while the film was a delight to watch the main character I liked was Charo's character and I never knew that Charo could work in animated movies so well and her character Ma Toad was so talented at singing the song On The Road. My other favorite part was when Thumbelina and the prince were dancing to Let Me Be Your Wings and I don't know how they picked Barry Manilow to write the songs for the movie but he did write fantastic songs and Let Me Be Your Wings is a wonderful ballad and Barry teamed up with American Idol vocal coach Debra Byrd to sing it with him at the end credits and his version is also great as well. But the weirdest thing that happened when I watched it in the theater my teacher cried for the prince when they thought he was gone but I was very happy that Thumbelina got her wings and got married at the end. After seeing the movie my classmates wrote a review about Thumbelina and I got a good grade on my review

I loved this movie so much as a kid! I even dressed up as Thumbelina for Halloween!
