- Synopsis:
Animated feature narrated by Ringo Starr which features original songs composed and performed by American singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson. The story centres around a young boy named Oblio (voiced by Mike Lookinland) who lives in an unusual land where everything from the trees and buildings to the people all have a point. Banished from the land because of his strange and unusual rounded head, Oblio is sent to the Pointless Forest with his faithful companion, Arrow, where he encounters many fantastic characters including a three-headed man and a friendly old rock. As the story progresses, Oblio learns that although not all things appear outwardly pointy, this does not mean they lack a point in life. - Actors:
