Have I Got a Story For You

About This Movie

So, 'Have I Got a Story For You' is kind of a nostalgic trip back to those simpler, whimsical storytelling times. You have Shari Lewis engaging with her puppet pals—Lamb Chop, Charlie Horse, and Hush Puppy—while weaving together classic tales like 'Rumplestiltskin' and 'The Lion and the Mouse.' The practical effects are charming, and you can really feel the warmth of the performances as they bring these stories to life. It has this gentle pacing that feels like a cozy afternoon, and the family themes resonate deeply, making it a nice watch for both kids and adults. It’s this unique blend of humor and innocence that makes it stand out in the family genre.

The film has seen a few releases over the years, but finding an original copy can be a bit tricky, especially in good condition. Its appeal tends to draw in collectors who appreciate family entertainment from the '80s, along with fans of Shari Lewis’s work. It’s not the rarest title, but it certainly has a niche following among those who fondly remember its storytelling style.
