A new trailer has arrived for The Sheep Detectives and it looks so funny! I've always loved a good mystery, but having a flock of sheep solve the whodunit is definitely unusual. 

Here's the official synopsis from Amazon:

In this witty, new breed of mystery, George (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads detective novels to his beloved sheep every night, assuming they can’t possibly understand. But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realize they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.

Starring Hugh Jackman, Nicholas Braun, Nicholas Galitzine, Molly Gordon, with Hong Chau and Emma Thompson, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Chris O’Dowd, Regina Hall, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, Rhys Darby.

The Sheep Detectives arrives in theaters on May 8th.

In “Moana,” Disney’s live action reimagining of the beloved Oscar®-nominated animated adventure, Moana (Catherine Lagaʻaia) answers the Ocean’s call and, for the first time, voyages beyond the reef of her island of Motunui with the infamous demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson) on an unforgettable journey to restore prosperity to her people. 

Moana arrives in theaters on July 10th.

Whistle Stop - Robin Hood

Disney

The soundtrack from Disney's Robin Hood is still one of my favorites. There's just something delightful about the music from the animated film.

Charles Dickens Quote

"It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade."

Butterfly Topiary
