Movie Reviews of Goodnight Moon and Other Sleepytime Tales
Movie Review: like a sleep-inducing drug, only for children, in a good way
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the most soothing, calming, beautiful thing ever made for TV. Aaron Neville singing Brahms Lullaby, with the incredibly sweet animation that goes with it from Ink Tank, will melt the coldest heart and bring tears to your eyes; that alone is worth the price. This whole tape worked like a drug on our then-2 year old, who otherwise had a lot of anxiety over bedtime. (We did skip the "Nightmare in My Closet" segment for a long while, though.)
Regarding the New York-centric comment from one reviewer, I never even noticed this, really, & I'm from TN/NC/VA; a number of the kids interviewed are actually from Durham, NC.
What the kids have to say is almost always sweet and insightful (there is one precocious girl featured in one segment who seems to know/think that what she's saying is really deep, but apart from her, these kids are all beautifully honest and innocently wise). Our kids (now K-6) could watch this every night, and so could we.
Summary of Goodnight Moon and Other Sleepytime Tales
Featuring performances by: tony bennett natalie cole billy crystal lauryn hill patti labelle aaron neville and susan sarandon. Studio: Hbo Home Video Release Date: 11/14/2006 Rating: NrMargaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd's bestselling children's book headlines this winning 25-minute collection of sleepytime tales from HBO. Susan Sarandon narrates the simple story of a bunny readying for bed. Other top entertainers lend their voices to the tape: Tony Bennett sings the story of "Hit the Road to Dreamland"; Lauryn Hill brings rhythm to "Hush, Little Baby" (the best segment); Billy Crystal lends many voices to Mercer Mayer's "There's a Nightmare in My Closet"; and singers Natalie Cole, Aaron Neville, and Patti LeBelle sing other tales. A dandy video for the youngster, punctuated with "interviews" of real kids answering a host of bedtime questions. --Doug Thomas
