Three Happy Cherries transports you into a whimsical world where imagination reigns supreme. The story revolves around a young boy cursed into a bird's form, which sets up this peculiar mix of fantasy and family themes. The pacing is gentle, allowing for reflection on transformation and the quest for happiness. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking by today’s standards, have a certain charm that enhances the story's magical atmosphere. Performances, particularly of the boy-turned-bird, carry an innocence that resonates well, adding layers to the narrative. It’s not something you see every day, and that's what makes it stand out in the landscape of 70s family films. A hidden gem for sure.
Three Happy Cherries has seen limited releases, making its availability a bit of a challenge for collectors. Most copies are on VHS, and finding a good condition one can be tricky. Interest tends to bubble up among those who appreciate obscure fantasy films from the 70s, and it has a small but dedicated following. It’s worth keeping an eye out for any new releases or restorations, as its unique premise and execution deserve a wider audience.
