Thumbelina A unique, one-of-a-kind movie! Both Jodi Benson and Gino Conforti has earned overwhelmingly positive reviews and is considered by many to be one of the best films of the year! Maybe thats what makes the movie so good.The great cast includes Jodi Benson, Gino Conforti, Barbara Cook, Will Ryan, June Foray. The movie moves on like a dream and end leaving you wanting for more.
If you love watching Jodi Benson or Gino Conforti, you are deffinetly going to want to watch Thumbelina.
Ranking just behind the best of animator Don Bluth's films (Anastasia and The Secret of NIMH), Thumbelina is a bubble-light version of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale. The finger-sized heroine goes about the old-fashioned trials of trying to find a good man, but the film is clever enough to make it endearing for the 3-6 set and more than passable for adult viewers. Barry Manilow provides much of the song score, which helps immensely. The ballad "Let Me Be Your Wings" is as good as Disney's best. Carol Channing and Charo have a good ol' time with their songs too. The voice of Thumbelina is none other than Jodi Benson, who gave voice to Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid. --Doug Thomas
Unveiled- To begin, this movie has a great beginning; it pulled me right into it.This is something not usually seen in movies of this type, so it makes it an unusual, yet pleasant experience.The action scenes are really great. Jasmin Tabatabai played his role great. Navd Akhavan actually caught my interest.
I think Jasmin Tabatabai and Navd Akhavan worked wonderful in Unveiled. The great supporting cast includes Jasmin Tabatabai, Navd Akhavan, Bernd Tauber, Majid Farahat, Georg Friedrich.
All in all, I would rate this movie an 8.5/10. I would definitely watch this movie again.
I left some information, immages, and video previews of Unveiled below.
Summary of Unveiled: Fabria, prosecuted in Iran because of her love affair with another woman, flees to Germany. Her application for asylum is turned down-but her desperate prospects are improved by the suicide of her fellow inmate Siamak. She assumes his identity and, using his temporary permit of sojourn, heads off to a provincial village. At first glance, her survival seems to be assured, but in the refugee hostel, she is obliged to uphold her male disguise in cramped quarters and a single mistake could blow her cover. In order to pay for forged documents, she takes an illegal job in a sauerkraut factory, where she meets Anne, who is very solicitous about Siamak's well-being and derives some kind of pleasure from the strange foreigner. While spending more and more time together, they become dangerously close and Anne begins to suspect Fariba's true identity, and Fariba's fate falls into danger when she is faced with being forced to return to Iran.
