Doctor Dolittle 3

Maya Dolittle (Kyla Pratt) just wants to be a normal teenager, but there’s one small problem: she’s inherited her father’s uncanny ability to talk to animals.

Her special skill keeps landing her in the doghouse with her parents, and it’s driving her friends completely ape! At a summer dude ranch, Maya tries to hide her unique talent so she can fit in, but when her friends are in trouble, she come to the rescue as only a Dolittle can – enlisting the aid of the ranch’s outrageous talking animals.

This hilarious third instalment of the wildly popular Dr.Dolittle series is more family fun than a barrel of monkeys… and a lot easier to clean up after!

Producers, The

Bringing the Tony Award Winning musical on to the big screen. New York, 1959. Max Bialystock was once the king of Broadway, but now all his shows close on opening night.

Things turn around when he's visited by the neurotic accountant Leo Bloom, who proposes a scheme tailor-made for producers who can only make flops: raise far more money than you need, then make sure the show is despised. No one will be interested in it, so you can pocket the surplus. To this end, they produce a musical called Springtime for Hitler written by escaped Nazi Franz Liebken. Then they get the insanely flamboyant Roger De Bris to direct.

Finally, they hire as a lead actress the loopy Swedish bombshell Ulla (whose last name has over 15 syllables). As opening night draws near, what can go wrong? Well, there's no accounting for taste...
