It's awfully big of you

To help us weed out the old videos, click.

Big of me?

As in, I'm usually so small?

Is that what you mean?

No, no, no, click.

It's just an expression.

Yeah, cleo means that it's nice of you

As in big-hearted.

Oh, right.

I would have known that

Had you directed me to my expression finder.

Whoa, look at this.

You don't want to get rid of this one.

♪ Bum, bum, bum. ♪

Sausage nose.

Sausage nose?

Yes, sausage nose, starring faith prince, walter bobbie

With marilyn sokol as the strange old lady

A short foreign film from sweden with subtitles.

What are subtitles?

The dialogue is printed on the screen to read.

Lionel: whoa, that's so cool.

Can we watch it?

Please, please, please?

Since it's a short film.

Let's see.

Oh, seven and a half minutes.

Hey.

All righty then.

Oh, cool.

Excellent.

( Knock at door )

Woman:

( Wind howling )

( Sniffs )

Ooh.

Ja.

( Both crying )

Oh, ja...

Ah, ja.

( Wind howling )

( Shivering )

Hello.

Hello.

( All gasp )

Mommy, look, it's them.

Oh, please, please, help us.

Ja.

A strange old lady gave us three wishes.

We know, we know.

Yeah, we saw the video.

Video?

What's a video?

You must help us.

Ja.

How shall we use our last wish?

Well, it seems to me

There's only one thing to do.

You have to wish the sausage off your nose.

( Gasps )

Nah.

No, no.

Nah.

Don't go wasting your third wish.

Wish for something really great.

Ja.

Ja.

But... Like what?

Like anything.

But we've been poor for so long

We don't even know what there is to wish for.

Poor, papa, but happy.

Don't forget happy.

Oh, happy, poopsie.

Mmm... Delicious.

Well, you know, there's a whole world of stuff

And it's all right here under your....

Yeah, yeah, they're right here in these books.

You should come with me.

You'd definitely find some stuff you want.

Wow!

We're going... Shopping?

Shopping.

I've heard of shopping.

Well, come on then.

Come on, come with us.

Oh, uh...

Poopsie.

I have to go do some work now.

Have fun shopping.

Woman: oh, ja, good-bye.

Bye now.

You know, clay

I find that sausage on her nose very... Uh...

Uh... Attractive?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, attractive.

Yeah, me, too.

It kind of reminds me of... Uh...

A beak?

Yeah, a beak.

Ooh.

And that kind of reminds me of how ridiculous this all is

As if I needed reminding.

( Grunts )

Announcer: and now, lovers of the vowels "a," "e," "i," "o," "u"

And sometimes "y"

Martha reader and the vowelles are in the house

Singing the short "i" sound in their zippy big hit, "dish."

( Background chorus sings repeated short "i" sound )

( Martha singing short "i" sound in sync to soul b*at )

( Song ends; cheering and applause )

( Makes gurgling sound )

F... F... F...

Ish... Ish.

F... Ish.

Fish.

( Makes gurgling sound )

And now a little poem in which letters change

And make something very interesting happen.

♪ Young tish had a big empty dish ♪

♪ To get something to eat was her wish ♪

♪ Tish's dad, with no trouble ♪

♪ Exchanged "f" for "w" ♪

♪ Now tish is munching a fish, oh, yeah ♪

♪ Now tish is munching a fish! ♪

Oh, look, here's some more cool stuff.

This one's about helicopters.

You want to wish for a helicopter?

And here's one about mummies.

You could wish for your own mummy.

Oh, no, thank you.

Or your own pyramid.

Or maybe you'd like to see that magazine

About the power boats again, huh?

Or how about a home gym, huh?

No, no, lionel...

They like the art books.

Oh, look at this.

Oh, this is very pretty.

You can have anything.

Hello?

Are you in there?

Lionel, I think they look kind of frozen.

Yeah.

( Loudly ): does any of this interest you?

Do you see anything you want to wish for?

Snap out of it! Snap out of it!

Okay, so what do you think, hmm?

We never knew there were so many things to want.

( Music begins )

♪ We used to think bread and a comfortable bed ♪

♪ Were surely as good as it got. ♪

♪ But now we have found ♪

♪ Since we've both looked around ♪

♪ That what used to thrill us does not. ♪

♪ Yes, we need stuff ♪

♪ And we need stuff to stuff all of our stuff in ♪

♪ The jewels need jewel boxes ♪

♪ The boxes need locks ♪

♪ The fancy new shoes all need fancy new socks ♪

♪ And fancy new boats need big fancy new docks ♪

♪ Yes, we need stuff. ♪

♪ Swedish meatballs, we were ♪

♪ We knew nothing of fur ♪

♪ Or diamonds or stretch limousines. ♪

♪ But now that we're choosy ♪

♪ We need a jacuzzi ♪

♪ Or we simply just won't feel clean. ♪

♪ Yes... We need stuff ♪

♪ And we need stuff to stuff all of our stuff in ♪

♪ The cars need garages ♪

♪ And we'll need massages ♪

♪ Because of the stresses ♪

♪ Of picking out dresses ♪

♪ And islands and castles, and though it's a hassle ♪

♪ Yes, we need stuff. ♪

( Both laugh )

Okey-dokey.

What's the last wish going to be, my poopsie?

I want you to decide.

The home gym or the basketball team?

( Chuckles )

You made a funny.

"Home gym or basketball team"?

As if anyone would waste a wish on those.

Man: I was not making a funny.

Woman: no?

I suppose you only want jewelry.

Well, at least we would have

Something to leave our children.

We don't have any children.

So, that's another pretty good wish.

Children are better than a basketball team.

That depends on the team.

What about the pretty mona lisa painting?

Mona shmona-- my kids could paint better than that.

We don't have any kids.

Now, where's that shelf with the race car books?

Race cars?

What are you, cuckoo?

We live on a dirt road.

You've only driven an elk.

Well, at least

I can drive.

This isn't going very well, is it?

Nope.

( Crowd cheering )

Gawain here once again at blending fields

Where two brave knights in armor

Will charge together at high speed and make a word.

Competing today, we have sir "sl"...

On your right, sir "ip."

Blend on, dudes.

( Crowd cheering )

Gawain: "slip"!

That's gawain's word for today

And this is gawain saying, "be hip, don't slip."

See you next time on...

Announcer: and now a word

From world-renowned mezzo-soprano ms. Denyce graves.

( Conductor tapping podium )

In.

( Wild cheering and applause )

Announcer: flying off the shelf once again

It's the continuing

Daring and dangling adventures of cliff hanger!

Today's adventure, number 2,612--

"Cliff hanger and the wish upon a star."

Chorus ( singing ):

We find cliff hanger where we left him last

Hanging from a cliff.

( Branch breaking )

Suddenly, night falls.

Far, far above, the first star appears.

Sharp as a tack, cliff reaches into his backpack

And extracts his trusty survival manual.

Using his expert decoding skills

Cliff begins to read.

"When you see a star, make a wish."

Chorus: ♪ cliff hanger ♪

♪ Hanging from a cliff... ♪

Can all be well, thanks to cliff's wistful wish?

( Snoring )

No, it is only a dream.

Man: ♪ and that's why he's called cliff hanger. ♪

( Branch breaking )

And now, direct from the plush hushaby club

The lush song stylings of ms. Cleo lion.

( Cheering and applause )

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you all.

Thank you.

( Motorcycle revving )

Leona: ah, there you are!

We've been looking all over for you.

Have you decided what you'll wish for yet?

No.

Unfortunately, the woman

On the other side of the shelf

With the sausage on her nose

Has very different ideas than I do--

Cuckoo ideas!

Tell the man previously known as my husband

That I heard that.

And tell him it is he who is cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.

Tell him.

Go ahead, tell him.

( Lionel clearing throat )

Pardon me.

She says it is you

Who are cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.

Got it, got it!

Thank you.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

I guess the woman with the sausage on her nose

Will be very happy

When the cuckoo man moves out of the house!

( Gasps )

The woman with the sausage on her nose

Will not miss the cuckoo man one bit.

Tell the cuckoo man "not one bit."

( All crying )

What is going on here?

Leona: oh, dad

They're breaking up

And it's all because of us.

Theo: what?

All we've done is show them really nice stuff

And they've done nothing but argue.

Look, first of all, guys

Look, this is definitely not your fault.

Right, it is never a kid's fault

When grownups argue.

Oh, phew!

Yeah, yeah.

Now, watch this.

Make way, here we go.

( Blowing whistle )

Hey, cool!

Maybe we could wish

For one of those.

This is a whistle, isn't it?

See? See?

He is cuckoo.

But do you know why it's impossible

For you to decide on a wish?

Why?

Why?

Why?

Why?

Because... Remember how happy you used to be

When you didn't have anything, before you had any wishes?

Yeah, we do, for sure.

Yeah, we do, for sure.

Then don't you see?

Nothing in the world that you could wish for

Could possibly make you any happier

Than each other.

Each other.

Each other.

( Gasps )

Each other! Oh!

Each other! Oh!

Poopsie... Sausage or no sausage

I still love you.

Oh, things or no things

I love you, too, my chickadee.

( All sighing )

Pop in the video, we're going home.

Yes, yes!

I've got it right here.

Yes!

Bye-bye, bye-bye.

( All saying good-bye )

Let's watch that video.

Let's go look at it, yes.

Theo: I love a happy ending.

Cleo: I do, too.

( Wind howling )

( Shivering )

Ooh!

( Giggling )

( Gasping )

Oh!

Oh!

( Chuckling )

Ah!

Ah!

Ooh!

Ooh!

( Both groan )

Ooh!

Ooh!

( Gasping )

Ooh!

Ooh!

Ah!

Ah!

( Growling )

Ooh!

( Both laughing )

I like foreign films.

Me, too.

There are games and stories at the between the lions web site:



Theo: reading to children every day creates warm family memories

And it helps them become better readers.

Help a child get wild about reading.

Be a designated reader.

I'm ready to get wild.

Okay.
