Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

bts1984 'The Three Lives of Thomasina' is one of the best live-action Disney works and an excellent drama. In the category of animal movies, it also belongs to the greatest's list. But while the majority of animal movies are mostly about dogs, this one is dedicated mostly to a cat, Thomasina. It has other animals, but the cat is the priority. This classic lacks more fame and popularity. It deserves more.The story is set in Scotland. The settings are gorgeous, which accents the appeal. Also, the lovely sounds of the bagpipes are there to remind us the Scottish environment. Even the soundtrack is enchanting.The story is solid and interesting. Some scenes are harsh and devastating, nevertheless the movie is charming. There is a lot to like. To cool down the tense atmosphere of such a depressing story, there are a few characters who are a comic relief: Mary's friends Geordie, Jamie and Hughie.The actors are great and even their Scottish accent is very believable, including those who aren't or weren't Scottish. The two charming "Mary Poppins's kids" are here. Matthew Garber's role is something like a slightly wilder, more carefree and more comical version of "his own" Michael Banks.Lori is a good and beautiful witch. Now where did I hear that only bad witches are ugly? Ah yes, it was in 'The Wizard of Oz'. I knew it! Indeed, Lori is a witch, but a good one. And beautiful too! I hardly even think of her as a witch, but as someone kind-hearted with some respectable powers used for goodness.I don't know the title of this in Portugal.

editortwo I adored The Three Lives of Thomasina as a child. It stuck to me so much that over 40 years later I looked it up again and was not disappointed. Very engrossing and sweet. I'm not much of a sucker for a happy ending, because they often feel so contrived, but this is a wonderful movie for kids and adults, especially all those who love animals. I know a few vets who would profit from seeing this movie. Many of them seem to have lost sight of the fact that a pet is more than just a paycheck. This was made in the days before the Humane Society and PETA had so much power, so I wonder how all the animals fared. Hysterical to see McGoohan in this, as his role in The Prisoner is so memorable and associated with him. Susan Hampshire I don't know. I had forgotten that the two kids were in Mary Poppins as well, although they certainly seemed familiar to me.

Lee Eisenberg "The Three Lives of Thomasina" is a Disney movie, so you know what that means. One of the surprising things is that the dad is played by Patrick McGoohan, who more recently played King Edward in "Braveheart". How do ya like that: in one movie, he lived in Scotland; in the other, he invaded it! Overall, I think that the movie goes a little too far in trying to tug at your emotions. My favorite cat-themed movie is "Cat's Eye", based on a Stephen King novel. As for movies with "three" in the title, I most recommend "Three Days of the Condor".So, there are better movies out there, especially considering that this came out the same year as "Dr. Strangelove", "A Fistful of Dollars" and "Zorba the Greek". And I thought that the portrayals of the gypsies was kinda racist. The only other cast member whom I recognized was Wilfrid Brambell, better known as Paul's grandfather in "A Hard Day's Night".I know that it's a little weird that in a review of a movie about a magical cat, I mentioned "Braveheart", "Three Days of the Condor", "Dr. Strangelove", "A Fistful of Dollars", "Zorba the Greek", the Beatles and Stephen King, but that's just the kind of person that I am.

MovieAddict2016 The Three Lives of ThomasinaAnother classic Disney story of a smart stray cat named Thomasina who dies and comes back to life, living with a so-called "witch" on her farm in the middle of a desolate wooded area--until the little girl Thomasina used to belong to finds out the cat is still alive and tries to get her back.I have a fuzzy old tape of this movie buried somewhere in my stash of recorded videos. I used to watch it quite a lot and it is very entertaining for the kids. Don't watch it without children around or else you might be put off by its quaint silliness.**** / *****
