Review of The Pebble and the Penguin (1995) by Sophie S — 26 Sep 2005
The Pebble and the Penguin is fine example of animated film at its best. Hubie, the endearing penguin, illustrates perseverance in its finest form, and his tenacity is something to be admired. This timeless story is delightful to audiences of all ages.
In today's world, where divorce and unrequited love run rampant, this simple story inspires and reminds everyone that true love is possible. In order to find the perfect pebble for Marina, Hubie searches the world.
The emotional turmoil that Hubie subjects himself to on his quest is akin to the interior tumult any human being feels. This film captures essence of human love in captivating and moving way. The musical talent of Barry Manilow only adds to quality of this film.
I think that this animal story offers incite to one of the most pivotal moments of human life: engagement. Everyone should watch this classic tale.
