Childhood is calling..


For years I have really come to believe that I was crazy! This movie that you see above here was a childhood favorite of mine! I have not seen it for years, and until just today had come to believe that I must have made this movie up in my head! I would ask my mom time and time again if she remembered anything about this movie...talking whales, lost city under water..anything?? She never knew what I was talking about. And today thanks to many a search on google....I found it!! I seriously had tears in my eyes! There is something so special about childhood..You know when you come across and old item you have not seen in years, or drive by an old home you grew up in? It brings back memories and emotions that can be so powerful..I felt that way today, even after just seeing the cover, and proving that it is a real movie (not made up in my head:) has been so incredible! I had forgotten so many things about this film, and suddenly I can remember so many things about it with just a picture! Anyway you might think I am crazy, but I loved my childhood, and I love finding old things that help me remember what it was like....

P.S. I was seriously contemplating writing a screen play for this movie before I found it. Haha! SO much for that idea..

I can totally identify with you on this one. I have one memories of one that might be made up as well. I think there's a character named "Kissifer" or something like that, and an alligator named Floyd, and I have no idea what it is. I'm glad you finally found yours - hope I'm as lucky!
