The first feature film featuring Curious George and the Man in the Yellow Hat has the familiar friendly illustrations and exciting adventures that have made the stories of H.A. and Margret Rey favorites for years. It tells the story of how Ted, the Man in the Yellow Hat, and George meet for the first time.
This is a sweet movie that is perfect for 4 - 9 year olds. They will love following the adventure, as Ted travels to Africa to bring an idol back to the museum he works in. Ted meets Curious George on the ship back to America and they develop the playful friendship we know and love.
The movie is set in present time, with cell phones and cappaccino references. It is simply told, with some lively shenanigans by both Ted and George. Catchy new songs by Jack Johnson play throughout the movie, including "Upside Down" and a cover of the White Stripes "We're Going To Be Friends".
