The Point tells the story of Oblio, a round-headed boy living in the land of "Point," where everything and everybody has one. Oblio, along with his trusty dog, Arrow, is banished to the Pointless Forest. Once there, the adventure begins. The tale is narrated by Sir Ringo Starr and features songs written and sung by Harry Nilsson. The movie is directed and animated by Fred Wolf.
Since The Point illustrates the magic of storytelling and music, it is the perfect film to show during the "Libraries Rock" summer reading program at the East Lyme Public Library. It's going to be a fun, interactive family night. Singing along is encouraged! If you love rock and roll, you will love July 18th at the East Lyme Public Library. No registration required. Costumes and conical hats are welcome!
