The only film Theodore Geisel--better known as
Dr. Seuss--was involved in bringing to fruition. Bart has only one enemy in the world: his piano teacher Dr. Terwilliker, who has a mad plan to force 500 youngsters to practice at his magnificent piano 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Bart's the only hope to save these kids from being enslaved. Fantastic sets, screenplay, and even song lyrics were provided by
Dr. Seuss. This candy-colored, live-action film is, in many ways, just as fun as his well-known books and TV specials.
