Premise of 'Little Spirit: Christmas in New York':
When a friendly cabbie (Danny DeVito) tells two young sisters the story of a boy named Leo (Michael Hall D'Addario) who moved to Manhattan with his family, a magical adventure begins. While adjusting to the big city and enjoying the days leading up to Christmas, Leo accidentally loses his dog Ramona in Central Park. A magical creature named Little Spirit appears and takes him on a quest to find Ramona. By the time Leo is reunited with Ramona, he has an eclectic group of friends that make the strange city seem like home.
Cast:
Danny DeVito (Taxi), Lucy Liu (Ally McBeal), Freddy Rodriguez (Six Feet Under), Brian Williams (Nightly News) and Brenda Song (The Suite Life of Zack and Cody) lend their voices to Little Spirit: Christmas in New York.
My Two Cents:
Little Spirit: Christmas in New York looks lush and pretty, with 3D CGI animation. New York City landmarks, like Rockefeller Center, are featured in sparkling holiday style. With a pet dog and a little spirit involved in the story, this will become a family holiday classic.
