  • Pippi Longstocking -- In this animated adventure, the spunky 9-year-old girl of the title (voice of Melissa Altro) awaits her father's return from being lost at sea while engaging in amusing encounters with neighboring children, an interfering busy-body and a pair of bumbling burglars. Directed by Clive Smith, the production has colorful but unexceptional cartooning, though Pippi's carefree hijinks should delight young viewers and lead some to the books recounting other of her adventures. A-I(G) ( 1997 )
