Protraph Lack of good storyline.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

paul-shankwiler I saw this movie in the mid 1980's in Berkeley. I found it at times incredibly touching, at other times uproariously funny. I left the theater convinced that plants are sentient beings who experience love, pain, and loss. My conviction and enthusiasm have waned over the years, but I still sometimes feel a twinge of guilt when I bite into a stick of celery. My son is now in fourth grade and wants to do a science experiment for school in which he tests whether or not plants that are talked to grow better than plants who are emotionally neglected. I think this film would be informative and helpful for him, but I can't find a copy anywhere. Does anyone know how I can borrow or rent a copy?

mrboo I saw this Paramount flick quite a few times, back when I was a projectionist just out of high school at the local art movie house, (this was circa 1982). I remember it being a mixture of dry documentary stuff and wonderful musical bits. Of the docu part I remember a scene where they hook a plant up to electrodes and measure it's sensitivity while they chop a head of lettuce in front of it (the plant freaks out on the machine's readout). I also remember a cool time lapse sequence with flowers blooming while they play "Here Come's The Sun". And the bits with Stevie Wonder wondering through a field of flowers was cool (and comical, as there was nothing for him to bump into). I've searched for years for this on video but I'm sure it's held up in musical right's limbo (that and the fact that no one's ever heard of it).

zherzog I saw this movie with my wife many years ago in a small theater in Baltimore, Maryland, after hearing the great soundtrack. I have tried unsuccessfully to purchase/sees any copy of it via the producer, distributor to no avail. Other viewers/fans unite! contact me.

drtturner It should be a crime that Police Academy had over 3 sequels and I lost track of the number of Lethal Weapons after they lost steam with the second installment, and yet the Sidney Poitier-Bill Cosby comedy pairings are not yet available on DVD and a Stevie Wonder musically driven project seems to have vanished from the earth. I just completed a power point on the life and contributions of the man born Steveland Morris. In an otherwise saccharin report, I will have one sidebar in which I explain my disconcert with the burying of a project that Mr. Wonder was so heavily involved with. If you ever get the opportunity to see this film, you are in store for a treat as it is a hard to find attraction. Although, I haven't had the opportunity to view this film, given the soundtrack and the non-threatening subject matter one can predict that it is worth a look.
