The Smeds and the Smoos (2022 TV Movie)

The Smeds and the Smoos
28 February 2023
Julia Donaldson's The Smeds and the Smoos is really a reworking of the Romeo and Juliet story for kids. It also reminded me of Dr Seuss's The Sneetches story about discrimination.

In a far off planet the Smeds and Smoos live separate lives due to their differences.

The Smeds are red and the Smoos are blue but that are is not the only distinction between the two.

Janet and Bill are the star crossed lovers who decide to mix together and play together. When the young Smed and Smoo fall in love. Their families strongly disapprove of the union.

So they decide to hop into their spaceship and zoom off into space. Now the respective families give chase and hopefully gather that they have more in common.

The CGI animation is good but not of the standard of animated feature films. The message will be more appreciated by the children.
