CHARLIE BROWN takes a trip on THE YELLOW SUBMARINE
Songs: Harry Nilsson (Words & Music)
Director/Animator: Fred Wolf
Voices: Ringo Starr, Mike Lookinland, Paul Frees
Writers: Harry Nilsson (story), Norm Lenzer (screenplay)
Harry Nilsson’s metaphorical tale of our society's resistance to those that are different and for staying true to your own beliefs. The Brady Bunch’s Mike Lookinland is the voice of Oblio, a young boy who is banished from the fantastical Pointed kingdom for having no point. Ringo Starr is the voice of Oblio’s father and the narrator.
Trivia: Paul Frees is best remembered as "The Man of a Thousand Voices." He worked for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Walter Lantz, Rankin/Bass, Jay Ward Productions, and Walt Disney during the Golden Age of Animation. He provided the voices of many characters including Boris Badenov of The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.

Yes! After all the stress, this is a special holiday detox. I rmemeber this when I was growing up. Thought it was wonderful. Thank you for posting this, much needed.

Just wanting to help on this - in your intro, you said Nilsson wrote the music to Midnight Cowboy but that music is by Fred Niel ! I love Oblio ❤️

This was just after Woodstock…kinda wondered if someone was into the psychedelics. But after really watching it and enjoying Ringo Starr’s narration I realized what a true musical genius Harry Nilsson was. RIP Harry, you made kids feel alright about being different.

Harry confessed he was tripping, during that walk in the woods...

@@deleted_why Yep. Scrolled down to say the same when the narrator was talking about the trees and branches coming to points.

In 1982 I was able to personally tell Harry how I enjoyed watching this on TV in 1971. RIP, Schmil and Zak.

I got this Lp from my dad when I was a kid. I've since found it on cd and dvd. I have the Lp he gave me framed on my wall. He passed in 2016, this is one of my favorite memories from him.

I’ve been listening to this album and remember 1971 when I watched it on our green vinyl couch. That’s the way it was. Nobody will read this ever! But I listen to this a lot lately. Makes me happy. Have a good day!

Ahh, the 70s...flower power, mind changing perspectives, gurus, focus on the positive, and peace corps were really about giving service not spying. We even believed humans, or western society, was evolving past war and would live in harmony with nature and each other. A time of high hopes and naivety... Thanks for this posting, Pizzaflix Cool.

I remember this so well. I watched it when it was originally on TV with my parents.

OOOOH, WONDERFUL MEMORIES !!! I'm 70yrs old now, but had a similar record album when I was about 17-18 and it was called "The Land of Point" by Gilbert O'Sullivan or Harry Nilsson. It was gorgeous. I've never seen this film though, so it's a real treat. Thank you very much for sharing Peace.

@gloriajleese8353 Год назад

i was 25 years old when i heard this LP Record ...Loved it then "The Point" and still do....those Songs were BRILLIANT....and so was the Movie.

@bigdaddylightning4965 Год назад

I have loved this cartoon since i was 10 years old back in the day when we only had 4 channels of TV and cartoons only came on saturday mornings starting at 6am and ending by noon, so as a kid a cartoon airing on a weekday in prime time was a big deal, i was a KISS fan and was very loyal to only listen to KISS but i so loved Harry Nilsson's writing style and finally realised how prolific he was but i didnt know he also wrote the story,or that he was best friends with the beatles any way,long live Oblio!!

@suburbohemian Год назад

Ahhh, the 70's! They don't make them like this for kids anymore, more's the pity....I was 9/10 when this was played on tv, and I loved it.

@ryoko65 Год назад

Ah yes ... The pointed wit of the early 70's that deflected from just how subversive their ultimate "point of view" really was.... Imagine being able to express yourself openly and have everyone love you! Or at least try to accept the differences in people ... I still really, really, really love this gem from my childhood! 🎉.

@jessfrankel5212 Год назад

I first saw this when I was around 9; it's stuck with me all these years. My mother loved the music so much, she went and bought the album. What I remember was Dustin Hoffman doing the narration. I think that was the first version, and Ringo Starr did a later version.Starr is good in this as well. Excellent music, surrealistic animation...that's what you get for dropping acid and writing a screenplay. Maybe I should do that with my books...😂

Was The Point ever re-broadcast as a Hallmark Hall of Fame Special? I remember seeing it on TV, but I always thought it was Hallmark....Always thought it was neat Bobby Brady (Mike Lookinland) was the voice of Oblio(and the son).

I first watched this over 50 years ago one Christmas and Harry Nilsson narrated the movie himself. I've never been able to find that original soundtrack but the songs have stood the of time superbly. Ringo is not the best substitute, but it will do for now i guess,
