a glimpse of the sea of plenty

Australia has a habit of producing extraordinarily beautiful children's films. This film: WHAT THE MOON SAW is one of them. I do not know where Producer Frank Howson is today, but he needs to get this film onto DVD immediately so the audience it deserves can find it. Set in a make believe world of shambles matinée theatre, this delightful tale of a lonely young boy finding a major ray of golden sun enter his life when he visits an aunt and spends his holiday backstage is greatly unappreciated and needs rediscovery. Released slightly in 1990 for the holidays it received warm reviews and vanished. Superb costume and art direction and with more than a hint of genuine magic, WHAT THE MOON SAW belongs to that great tradition of OZ children's film that feeds the adult emotion and sensibility. Other great films from Oz like this are; SAY A LITTLE PRAYER, STORM BOY and the multi award winning NO WORRIES. Each excellent and different. WHAT THE MOON needs to see in 2005 is the DVD player and loving families.
