Blast from the Past

There are times when I am really grateful the DVD was invented, especially when it means my favorite movies from my childhood are finally available. My sister is a member of the Disney Movie Club and about a month ago I was browsing one of her catalogs and found one of my ABSOLUTE favorites - Polly. For those of you who missed out on this fun show - it was one of the "Wonderful World of Disney" TV movies that aired in the late 80's. It is a fun version of Pollyanna with really fun singing and dancing. My Grandpa recorded it for me when it was first on and that tape is about worn out after the many times I watched the movie so I was thrilled to be able to get a new copy. It finally came last week, and, bad influence that I am, I convinced my roommate to watch it with me instead of studying - her for the MCAT, me for my CRA class final. Oh well, it was totally worth it! This show is still as cute as ever. Of course, when you are younger you don't notice the really bad lip syncing that bugs me now - but it was still a fun blast from the past. Now if only they would release Mr. Boogety!
