Waste of Money.

Touches You

There are women in the film, but none has anything you could call a personality.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The first time I saw this movie, I Had just gave birth to my first daughter. This movie was so inspirational that it brought tears to my eyes. I enjoyed this movie so much, I want my children and grandchildren to see it with me. It breaks my heart that this movie is not seen any more. I am in my late fifties, and I still would like to see this movie again. It may bring tears to my eyes, but they are tears of joy. With all the trouble around us we need more movies like The Night The Animals Talked. I have been searching for this movie for a very long time, if any one knows where I can find this movie, Please let us know. I looked at the family line-up for 25 days of Christmas, and again no movie of The Night The Animals Talked. This movie, The Night The Animals Talked is a great movie at Christmas time as well as anytime of the year. We need more movies like The Night The Animals Talked, to be seen on television. and DVD's or video, so more children could understand the great joy that it inspires.

I've been looking for a copy of this for years! I vividly remember seeing it on TV among all the other Christmas specials(must have been about seven years old at the time), and to this day can recall certain scenes. I remember my sister and I watching avidly, and crying because we were so touched by the animals' plight as they tried to share good news. Over the years, I've searched the net.... have even rung TV stations to see if they had any details about it in their archives. This site is the first time I've tracked down any useful information. It would bring back a lot of happy memories if I could ever secure a copy of this film to watch with my family. A true little gem - considering how much junk is displayed on TV at this (and every other!) time of year, it's a great pity that this has never been shown again on Australian television.

This may be pathetic, but twenty-five years after the last broadcast of this cartoon, my brother and I still 'baaaa' at each other like goats every Christmas Eve.This truly beautiful piece of holiday animation combines two of the most cherished genres in the world: namely (and no offense to non-Christians), Christmas and talking animals. And it mixes these two genres in a touching, intelligent way.It's the story of one night when all the animals in a stable discover that they can speak. With this "gift" comes conflict, provoked mostly by the arrival of two (soon to be three) unwanted guests to their stable. Each animal has a differing and fitting personality and a differing stance on whether to allow the guests to stay. The eventual resolution is not only heart-warming, but, dare I say...haunting.You will never forget this.

It's a shame this movie is so unrecognized as a Christmas classic. It's a wonderful story.
