[last lines]
Mrs. Cherrywood: ...And a fine story that was, Mr. Cherrywood.
Mr. Cherrywood: My favorite, Mrs. Cherrywood. But they never stay awake long enough for the end. Now they'll never know what eventually became of Nicholas. I guess all they need to know is that he also lived happily ever after... Happier than I ever thought I could be.
Mrs. Cherrywood: Nicholas, these children should have been in bed ages ago. What am I ever going to do with you?
Mr. Cherrywood: Care for me, Kim. Just care for me.

Now, where should I begin? Ah, yes. It makes me enjoy the movie a lot more now that I know that some famous people were involved in it. The story is narrated by Mickey Rooney, someone with a very kid-friendly voice. There was also Cree Summer, who did voices in various different cartoon series', and of course, Billie Mae Richards (Rudolph).
This is a great children's movie, and some adults can enjoy it too. I don't recommend this movie to the 7 to 18 range. It's pretty enjoyable, but it also has a lot of frightening parts. I was always scared to death of the dark spirit. To help lighten the mood, there are also some catchy songs in this movie as well, which are all done by famous pop artists such as Carol King and John Sebastian. Today, the only thing I really love about this movie is the finale song, "It's Great to Be in the Care Bear Family". For some odd reason, I'm such a sucker for all those "Kids of the Kingdom"-types of songs.
This movie was followed by two sequels. The first of the three was really good and really dark and dramatic, the second one was just as good but seemed more like a comedy than a drama, and the third one was just plain weird. Right now, I just wish I could watch this movie again and see how much stuff I can remember from it. I'm sure it will bring back to me some very fond memories.
