Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure!

“𝘔𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘶𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘣𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦!” Under Williams’ direction, whimsy and charm with fair amounts of melancholy carry the film like a paper boat in a park pond, easy in nature, but one wrong wind and all could be washed out in unease. We always grew up thinking that our toys lived their own lives outside of our own play with them, and why not? They should be allowed those worlds. And here, they sing and dance and drift off in a Wonderland kind of way that makes this a mature picture for its intended audience. Fun gimmicks in reflections and transitions carry the wonder and swiftness throughout.
