My one line summary is actually a quote from a 'Family Affair' web site, but it does reflect what made the biggest impression on me. Though Caitlin didn't show the talent she demonstrated, along with Tim Curry, in her TV series, she made Angela adorable and someone to care about. This, to me, was really a movie about a girl's adjustment to junior high, not a movie about a baseball-playing dog. The plot about the dog and his offspring--who a professor wanted to kidnap in order to create a 'superdog'--seemed secondary. Though the kidnap plot did add some excitement.
It was a funny and touching movie and good clean family fun. Well, not quite clean. Baseball players do get their uniforms dirty. Then there was that incident in Home Ec class. And let's not forget the hogs!
