Wonderful movie. Saw it in Dallas 1/22

We saw this movie at the USA Kid Film Festival in Dallas this afternoon, and loved it. This movie really gives you a lot to think about regarding what's really important in life. I really wouldn't put this in the category of a "Kid Film", although it is kid-friendly.

Afterwards we also had a very nice Q&A with Messrs. Shallcross and Mantegna, along with Gina Mantegna. I'd like to commend them for patiently sitting thru a bunch of silly questions by 5-year olds, and sharing a lot about the creation of this wonderful story.

I can't wait for the sequel. Send the "band" to visit Uncle Nino in Italy, where he can teach them about life, and how to woo a woman. Perhaps a romantic comedy?
