The Little Prince (1974)
Member Rating:  
Stanley Donen directed this lugubrious musical fantasy based on the classic Antoine de Saint-Exupery children's parable, featuring a musical score by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe -- their first film score since Gigi. The simple story concerns a French aviator (Richard Kiley) who crashes his airplane in the middle of the Sahara desert and comes upon a young blonde prince (Steven Warner) from another planet. The Little Prince tells the pilot that he is inspecting the universe and stays in the desert long enough to convey to the pilot his impressions of the earth and stories of other planets he has visited. In a supporting role as a serpent that the Little Prince met amongst his travels in the universe, Bob Fosse stops the show with a slithery dance routine. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

    The DVD was good. It did however have to accomodate the important parts of the book to fit it in the time allowed for this movie. I suggest reading the book first. The book is great. This movie is ok but it is very hard to imagine things in the movie than reading it. The movie seemed a bit chopped up and spent more time highlighting certain characters, but i think that was because the scenes had to fit the songs composed.

    A very smart Little Prince from outer space decides to visit other planets to learn about life. His final stop is Earth where he meets a snake, a fox and a pilot who each teach him their own version of what life is. Set on a time when children were innocent, this story contrasts life and the world as seen by children and adults. The Little Prince is a good role model for children of all ages. Wonderlful music.
