I had the greatest pleasure this past Christmas (2004) of having the opportunity to watch this beloved movie once more. We never owned it when I was younger, but to my mother's memory, anytime we had an opportunity to rent a kid movie from the video store, without doubt, we would pick Follow That Bird. This year, though, my older brother happen-chanced upon a copy of the tape and bought it as a present for Mom. Anyhow, to get down to business...I was amazed at just how wonderful this movie really was. Yes, it is a kid's movie, and is therefore corny and the such (they do break out into cheesy songs every now and then...), but it had a unique charm that a lot of B-class kid movies just don't have anymore. And while Sesame Street still exists for kids today, the newer stuff just doesn't seem to be the same. So for all of you out there like me who grew up on old school Sesame Street...I totally recommend you watch this movie....nostalgia is one of the greatest feelings in the world!
