The point (An animated story)

I have stumbled, a long time ago, at Texas A&M University (located in College Station, Texas) over this story / song, and liked it very much, but forgot totally about it…..  some time ago I, for some sort of a  reason ( I don’t know why) remembered the story , I looked it up on U-Tube, it is still fun to listen to it….. to the time less moral of the story…..

Quote:

It is an  animated story of an unusual kingdom in which everything and everybody is pointed - except for a young boy named Oblio (provided by Mike Lookinland, an actor best known as young Bobby Brady on the television series The Brady Bunch). Despite his round head, Oblio has many friends. But an evil count, jealous that Oblio is more popular than his own son, says that without a pointed head, Oblio is an outlaw. Along with his faithful dog Arrow, Oblio is exiled to the Pointless Forest. There, he has many fantastic experiences (including encounters with a 3-headed man, giant bees, a tree in the leaf-selling business, and a good-humored old rock). From his adventures, Oblio learns that it is not at all necessary to be pointed to have a point in life. Music composed and performed by Harry Nilsson ("Me and My Arrow"), who also wrote the story. Ringo Starr narrates.


I hope you will enjoy it, as I still do…..
its some what long – but good!

My mom had turned it on the tv on a weekend. Thanks Michael.

    I remember this animated movie from back when I was in the Marines. I saw it at the Cubi Point Naval Hospital while healing up from some wounds. Or maybe it was Miramar Naval Hosp. No matter, I really enjoyed it at the time.
