The Point (1971) Part 1
Loading...
Uploaded by thehobbitmov on Nov 14, 2008
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.

Actually Harry Nilsson narrated the story on the album, but the original TV showing of the point was narrated by Dustin Hoffman.

I wish that I could find a copy of the original version of The Point. Ringo is okay, but Harry narrated the original version. It's a remarkable video that contains remarkable music. "To be or not to be, that is the point."

Its a shame that we cant get a copy of the original. There have been four different versions made and the first one narrated by Dustin Hoffman was the best. Thanks for posting this timeless classic.
