Features: DVD
Follow that bird--Big Bird, of course--for an imaginative, magical for-kids-of-all-ages treat starring the cast of TV's Sesame Street in their first movie. Jim Henson's beloved characters Oscar, Bert, Ernie, Cookie Monster and more--plus other members of the Sesame Street family--join Big Bird in a big-hearted, cross-country adventure. A meddling social worker sends poor Big Bird off to Ocean View, Illinois for the comforts of family life with his "own kind," the Dodos. But Big Bird is a disaster as a Dodo and, lonely and homesick, he soon sets off on foot for Sesame Street. Can his old friends find him before he runs "afowl" of trouble as he makes his way back?
"A movie the whole family can enjoy." Family Circle Magazine
"Sweet, simple film... Cute songs throughout." Leonard Maltin's Movie & Video Guide
Editor's Note
Big Bird leaves Sesame Street to live with an "adopted feathered family," but gets homesick and decides to return to his old pals.
