Musical Hell presents the Drew Barrymore Babes in Toyland
Hey, I prefer the original Annette Funicello version too, but this movie still has a soft spot in my heart. Is it hokey? Yes. Are the songs a little stiff (despite being from Leslie Bricusse of Doctor Doolittle and Willy Wonka fame)? Yes. Do I care? No. This movie has heart, and sometimes that's enough.
(And the Amazing Thing I Learned Today is that the version I know is heavily cut down from the original, which you can now see on YouTube here).
