THE TRUMPET OF THE SWAN (Limited Theatrical Release USA 2001)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.7|5.0 Starsììì

The Trumpet of the Swan—solid animated story—gets a bit redundant on environmental themes. It’s fun to see the swan blow a trumpet. The trumpet song is probably the best in the movie. The movie serves the child audience better than adult audience.
