Stars Lend their Voices to Eco Fairytale

Sean Astin and Giovani Ribisi set out to save the forest in new film

Kid friendly "eco movies" are a great way to educate the younger generation and teach them of the importance of caring for the environment. Spirit of the Forest will feature the voices of Sean Aston, Giovani Ribisi, Anjelica Huston, and Ron Perlman.

Spirit of the Forest is about two gophers living in a forest destined to be destroyed in order to put up a new super highway. The gophers, assisted by an oak tree, team up to fight the greedy developers and hilarity ensues. The part of the two gophers will be played by Ribisi and Astin, Perlman plays the oak tree and I'm sure Anjelica Huston will be deliciously wicked as the developer.

More films like this please! Kids love to learn through books and films and the more fun "ecotainment" we throw their way the better. When my son was two years old our favorite book was the Lorax and we still watch the VHS version often. Because of that book he knows how eco systems collapse when you start mowing down forests and how it takes many years, if ever, to clean up messes made by humans.

We're going to see this one in the theater...and I bet we buy the DVD too! A 2009 release is expected.

Great
