Savannah Smiles | Year: 1982 Classification: Feature Film Family Directed: - Pierre De Moro Daughter named after this movie This is an excellent movie. I watched it as a child and loved it. It was funny and sad at the same time. My sister and I still recite lines from it and laugh. As a young child, I said if I ever had a daughter I would name her Savannah after the little girl because she always brought a smile to my face. And sure enough when I had my daughter, there was no doubt what her name was going to be. I named her Savannah and she too brings a smile to my face every time I see her. My daughter always wants me to tell her about Savannah and we laugh together. I would love you it to be brought back so she and I could sit and laugh and cry watching it together. It is a masterpiece all should watch. 5 [stars] Savannah Smiles. Cuter than a Mogwai! This is an excellent family movie that didn't quite achieve the box-office success that it rightfully deserved. It did make the rounds on cable TV, especially on Showtime, where it became somewhat of a cult classic with not only 5 year olds, but their parents as well. I was one of those parents. Although I do not want to encourage my little girl to jump into the back of a car with two bumbling criminals, I was enchanted by this heart warming tale. Who can resist singing along with the lines, "I was born and raised in a briar patch! da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da!" I, for one, cannot. Here I am, 15 years later, browsing through the new release DVD's (I was actually looking for the adult film star Savannah, but don't tell that to my kids!), and I saw that this film was being re-released! Sold! Although my kids are now in their teens, I'm sure that they'll want to show this to their kids, and their kids' kids. A movie that transcends generations! Wonderful! This movie is a must see for everyone. It is an incredibly touchi duced to the status of village pariahs, the unwelcome duo find themselves confined to the tiny cottage where they are forced to burn their own furniture to stay warm, and literally shooting fish in order to survive.<BR>Though the movie is a bit plodding and self-important at times; WITHNAIL & I is nonetheless an absorbing and well-acted low key cult item that is worth a look for curiosity's sake.
