The Extraordinary Adventures of the Mouse and His Child - full movie new...

This is the first full restoration - Color and Sound - of :The Extraordinary Adventures of the Mouse and His Child", the forgotten production of Charles M Schulz which is a wonderful full length animation for kids old and young, staring the voices of Peter Ustinov, Cloris Leachman, Sally Kellerman, Andy Devine, and John Carradadine. The story centers around a wind up toy mouse attached to his son in the same toy. They have an assortment of friends they call their family in a toy store, until they accidentally fall out a window. When the mouse and his child fall out the window they fall on a trash heap and end up at the dump. There they are enslaved by a rat who runs an illegal casino and who enslaves broken wind up toys. But since most toys end up at the dump some day, their friends from the toy shop end up in the same dump. Banding together, they over come the evil rat and his gang and form a unique family! This is an unusual tale that has been forgotten over the years. When it was released in theaters, good old Leonard Maltin, never one to look too deeply into the goodness of a story, called it a "Bomb, and said "boring animated film with talk talk talk and no action, what adult wants to watch this.?" Well Leonard, this work of art was not made for us adults, it was made as a wonderful tale for kids and drawn well enough for parents and animation lovers to enjoy it's innocence as well! We at Cartoon Crazys found the best copy of The Mouse and his Child to be a real mess, faded, scratched and with many video anomalies, not to mention very bad sound. We have worked very hard to make it look and sound as the original artists created it to be. Remember that when this was filmed (animation frames transferred to film master) it was done in the dreaded kodak process. So the color was gone and pink, as well as old and faded. If and when Sanrio Films ever decides to put a good restored copy out, we will of course take this one down, and they are welcome to any elements of this restoration they would like to use in the process. But for now, we hope you enjoy this restored version of The Extraordinary Adventured of the Mouse and His Child free for your viewing pleasure. It is here on YouTube in many versions, but I think you will find this version to be the only one that is full rich color and ultra stereo clear soundtrack! Thank you for watching our labor of love!
