Description:
Waterstone Mortgage presents their Free Fall Family Features concluding the series with the film "The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking" on Saturday, October 28, 2023 at the Lyric Theatre.

"The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking" is a 1988 adventure family fantasy starring Tami Erin, David Seaman and Cory Crow and is rated G.

Movie Synopsis:
After her father's ship is carried off by a sudden storm, the spunky Pippi Longstocking is stranded with her horse, Alfonso, and monkey, Mr. Nilsson, and takes up residence in the old family home, which is thought by neighborhood children to be haunted. Soon, two children, Tommy and Annika, venture into the house only to meet up with Pippi. The three soon become friends and get into various adventures together, including cleaning the floor with scrubbing shoes, dodging the "splunks", going down a river in barrels, and helping Pippi with the problem of having to go to a children's home. Older children will probably get the most out of this movie.
