An OSCAR nominee for the his song 'Benji's Theme (I Feel the Love),' writer-director Joe Camp's original canine classic remains one of the best-loved family films after thirty years. This tail-waging tale begins as Benji visits his pals Cindy (Cynthia Smith) and Paul (Allen Fiuzat), whose father, Paul Chapman (Peter Breck), won't let them give the mutt a home. But the shaggy stray changes his mind by saving the day when Mitch (Mark Slade) and his reluctant partners (Christopher Connelly, Tom Lester, Deborah Walley) kidnap the kids. 'Benji's uncanny ability to project emotions definitely makes him the Laurence Olivier of the animal world,' raved The New York Daily News. Now he's back for a new generation! Recommended for ages 5 and up.
