The Rescuers (1977) Movie Description:


The voices of Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor, John McIntire, Geraldine Page, Joe Flynn and Pat Buttram highlight the 1977 animated comedy, The Rescuers. This Walt Disney Productions release relates the story of an organization similar to the U.N. called the Rescue Aid Society. The difference is, this organization is staffed by mice.

A kidnapped orphan's "Help!" note, via the proverbial message in a bottle, is discovered in New York harbor by the Rescue Aid Society. The case is then undertaken by Miss Bianca (Gabor), who inexplicably selects Bernard (Newhart), a stammering, reluctant janitor, as her partner. After some coercing, Bernard agrees.

Through their investigation, the unlikely pair track the kidnapper's trail and, with the help of an albatross and a dragonfly, discover the orphan is hidden at a pirate's cove in the bayou.

Pet alligators, the world's largest diamond, and a "Swampmobile" all factor into the equation in this amusing and fast-paced adventure.

Candleshoe (1977) Movie Description:


One of the better efforts from Walt Disney Studios in the late '70s is Candleshoe, a 1977 action film adapted from Christmas at Candleshoe, a novel by Michael Innes. Norman Tokar, long-time Disney contributor, directed.

Noblewoman Lady St. Edmund (Helen Hayes, in her final screen appearance) faces eviction from her palatial estate if she cannot come up with the money to pay the taxes. What's worse, she has a weakness for taking in orphans, and the mansion is packed with them. With the children's help and considerable effort from her jack-of-all-trades butler (David Niven), she's barely able to keep the wolves at bay.

Meanwhile, an alleged treasure trove of gold coins is rumored to be hidden on the estate, and a thieving pair of crooks (Leo McKern, Vivian Pickles) are determined to find it. To that end, they enlist a street-wise urchin (Jodie Foster) to pose as St. Edmunds' grand-daughter in order to gain access and locate the treasure.
