The schoolgirl adventures of Madeline, a flame-haired orphan, are lovingly adapted from Ludwig Bemelmans's classic children's books. His sly and witty writing is transferred to this first-rate film, one that should not be thought of merely as childhood entertainment. Spunky Madeline is most adept at finding trouble. She is also a quick-witted and likeable child who can solve almost any problem. Her latest scheme is to keep her school, which is also her home, from being sold by its owner, the recently widowed Lord Covington (Nigel Hawthorne). Unlike most youthful movie fare, this adventure boasts high production values that wisely include colourful Parisian locations. Hatty Jones is all spunky self-sufficiency and sweet innocence in the title role, and Frances McDormand is quite humorous as the stern school-mistress, Miss Clavel. --Rochelle O'Gorman

Hayao Miyazaki is known as the Walt Disney of Japan, and the moniker is deserved. His movies are packed with a key element lacking from most kids' movies these days--imagination. What's a Totoro? Tune in and find out. Wonderful stuff for the whole family, as is Miyazaki's latest on video, Kiki's Delivery Service. Read more

Dr. Seuss is where it's at again. His widow recently got to take her pick of movie studios bidding for the rights to many of his masterworks. Next year, look for a live-action version of How the Grinch Stole Childrens with Jim Carrey, and possibly a Cat in the Hat feature starring Tim Allen. Seuss created the screenplay, storyboards, and 13 songs for an intriguing adaptation of Oh, the Places You'll Go! For any fans of Seuss's 1953 live-action charmer The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T, this is mighty get-together news! Read more
