The Little Prince

This is probably the hardest movie to place. While they added a whole new story, it merges new perfectly with the actual tale in the book. Let me elaborate, the movie seems to focus on the journey of an unnamed girl who's life has already been planned to the letter by her overprotective mother. She meets the pilot from the book, who lives next door. He then proceeds to tell her his story. The story in the book with very little change, Although I did miss the Prince talking to the lamp post lighter. As the movie progresses it has the little girl learning how to accept loss (a theme in the book), make her own plans, and to grow up without loosing her childlike wonder. The story, and ending really just extend the themes of the book while making it to relatable to modern kids. I loved the music, there were even a few songs in French! Relalisticly I will put this movie under medium, but I want to call it a half minor/half major movie.
