I grew up with this movie! I would play the scenes out over and over in my backyard and wanted more than anything to be Sebastian in that book store! As a child with a huge imagination and still to this day, a never ending day dreamer, I appreciate this movie so much and am just thrilled to see it recognized in “Let’s Go to the Movies!”
Ah, good. Such an important story and movie!
Loved this movie growing up! A classic!
