The Madeline Movie: Lost In Paris & WIN*

C’est Fantastique!

The Madeline Movie: Lost In Paris came out to DVD on April 13th. I was selected as one of the lucky mommy blogger reviewers to get a copy of this DVD to watch with my little girls.

I can remember reading Madeline books when I was a little girl. Watching the little girls get in 2 lines as they traveled around Paris.

In the movie “Lost In Paris” you will meet Uncle Horst and see her new adventure. My daughters were delighted to watch this captivating new movie about the little girl that everyone loves from Paris, Madeline.

FROM SHOUT FACTORY :    

Inspired by the beloved classic books that introduced us to a dozen delightful girls who live in an old house in Paris covered with vines, The Madeline Movie: Lost In Paris is full of spirited fun and five “fantastique” new songs. Screen legends Christopher Plummer (The Sound Of Music) and Lauren Bacall (The Big Sleep) co-star in the animated feature.

Both Plummer and Bacall had a big presence at this year’s Academy Awards® – Bacall was given an honorary Oscar for her work and Plummer was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Leo Tolstoy in The Last Station.

When a long-lost uncle from Vienna pays a surprise visit, Madeline’s dreams of family life seem wonderfully fulfilled — until she finds herself in the middle of an unfortunate scheme. Madeline then must call upon all of her courage and cleverness to foil an evil plot to take her from the only family she’s ever known. Join Madeline, Miss Clavel, Pepito, 11 school friends, and her ever-so-smart dog, Genevieve, in a thrilling Paris adventure you won’t want to miss, where everyone learns the true meaning of family!

“Babies” – Documentary Film – Mother’s Day Week-end*

“Babies is a Documentary Film coming out on Mother’s Day week-end (May 7th) . This film is by the same producer as “March of the Penguins” !

I watched the trailer and the babies are sooooooo adorable. It is going to be wonderful watching how 4 babies across the World go through their 1st year of life. It is true, their lives are very much different but their basic needs and development are very much the same, as you can tell just by watching this trailer. I cannot wait to go see this movie on Mother’s Day.
