Movie Reviews of The Three Lives of Thomasina
Movie Review: Thomasina
Summary: 5 Stars
Do you remember those old fashioned Disney movies that you watched as a child? I can remember getting my bath sitting on the couch with a blanket and pillow as my Mother handed out bowls of freshly popped corn to all of us eagerly waiting to see Tinker Bell fly over the TV announcing what the Disney movie was going to be for the week. I remember watching this as a child and crying over the loss of the beloved cat. To my surprise the cat came back to life and changed the little girls Father into a loving Dad and they all lived happily ever after. Disney fantasy? Perhaps, but this is one of those films that takes you back years and leaves you with a happy feeling in your stomach. I looked years for this film and was surprised, then again not surprised, that Amazon actually had it. I could'nt wait to show it to my now grown children but they enjoyed it just like I did. Even our 3 cats enjoyed watching their look alike on the screen.This is a must see movie and one worth watching over and over again.
Summary of The Three Lives of Thomasina
A beloved tabby cat becomes the catalyst for healing and hope between a young girl and her widowed father in Disney's 1964 classic, based on the enchanting fable by Paul Gallico. Set in the Scottish highlands in 1912, the story focuses on Andrew MacDhui (Patrick McGoohan) a veterinarian who, after the death of his wife, has closed his heart to goodness and empathy-- toward his animal patients and his only child. Left essentially an orphan, Mary (Karen Dotrice) finds love from her cat, Thomasina, until a tragedy injures the cat and her father orders it to be killed. A tenderhearted maiden (Susan Hampshire) finds Thomasina, detects a heartbeat, and nurses the feline back to health. Her healing powers eventually move beyond the animal kingdom into the lives of MacDhui and Mary. The stellar cast includes standout performances by Dotrice and Matthew Garber (who plays Mary's loyal chum)--better known as the duo, Jane and Michael Banks, in Mary Poppins. Best watched with kids and Kleenex. (Ages 5 and older) --Lynn GibsonSet against the beauty of the Scottish Highlands, Paul Gallico's best-selling story of a little girl's undying love for her cat comes wonderfully to life in this classic Disney adaptation. Tragedy strikes when Mary McDhui (Karen Dotrice) finds her beloved Thomasina seriously injured. Not even her stern father, a widowed veterinarian (Patrick McGoohan), can save the pet. Their only hope lies in a mysterious "witch" and the healing power of love. Conjuring up both tears and laughter, this tender film has a magical charm that will linger long in your heart.
