This animated feature based on the popular E.B. White book for children--about the special relationships between Wilbur the pig, Charlotte the spider, and Templeton the rat--is a straight adaptation from the page, with songs added. Endearing, heartbreaking, and ultimately wise, it may not please all of those with a strong attachment to the book, but it works all the same. --Tom Keogh

Customer Reviews

WHAT?!! No bonus features?!
Okay, all right, sorry if I had to *slam* such an wonderful, endearing classic (which it happens to be, for the record, so no sarcasm intended here), but what I don't get or understand is how Paramount could push something like this WITHOUT any bonus features (commentaries, behind-the-scenes info, and so on). I even once read where Debbie Reynolds said it took her two to three days for her to record the voice of Charlotte.

Ever since 1973 (when CW first came out), children's TV/movies have taken nothing but a severe nose-dive, to the point where all you see nowadays is TOTAL CRAP. Who cares how Saturday morning-ish CW was, in terms of animation and the voice cast? All it shows is the versatility of both put out by Hanna-Barbera; there are probably those of us who don't seem to realize how good we had it then!!

A must have!
My children, who are now all grown up, must have watched this movie when it originally came out a hundred times. I purchased it for my grandson and he loves it just as much. Much better than the remake, the music is wonderful and it makes it special.

It's a classic!
This is the classic "Charlotte's Web" that everyone knows and remembers as a kid. The DVD is great quality and brings back those childhood memories.
