The Strange But True History of The Point

TVC 528.4: Greg and Ed celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of The Point, the first feature-length animated movie made for television, which premiered on the ABC Movie of the Week in February 1971. Written by Harry Nilsson, and featuring the voice of Mike Lookinland (The Brady Bunch) and original songs by Nilsson, The Point remains an iconic film, despite a somewhat convoluted broadcast and distribution history that includes five different narrators for its various releases. The Point is now available on Blu-ray through MVD Visual.
