The quintet'sstruggles corruptbooksellers, inspire the royal lions and ultimately the German invaders.Songs include Lansbury's Oscar-nominated "The Age of Not Believing." This film is often compared to director Robert Stevenson's previous work, Mary Poppins, and for good reason. In addition to Tomlinson, the films share a love of magic in the hands of a good woman, alight-hearted romance with an understanding man, and wide-eyed children. Stevenson also enriches both films with interactions between humans and animated animals. This time it was smart of Disney to highlight this in the box set, as's underwater ball and the subsequent island soccer game are the most interesting and compelling parts of the film.Adults may find the 1971 mix of live action and animation a bit complicated, but children used to different qualities of animation will find the action very entertaining. 4 years and older. The film has been remade several times, but in 2001, on the thirtieth anniversary of its premiere, the original running time of 139 minutes wasrestored.
