This year I have been allowing us to get excited for Christmas a little early... The girls love the Nutcracker. They have seen the Fantasia version, the weird Maurice Sendak version, and read several picture books with the story. I decided Saturday that it was time they saw the GOOD one, the one I grew up watching and dancing to, the 1977 Mikhail Baryshnikov version. I have looked for it everywhere on video and netflix with no luck, but I found most of it broken up in segments on youtube. The girls absolutely loved it. One section was gone, and Miss A thought that the missing one was the one containing the scary rats, but unfortunately...
Miss A: So we didn't pass the mice... No problem. I can recover.
(And yes, now I see this dvd so I can order it...)
