A beloved tabby cat becomes the catalyst for healing and hope between a young girl and her widowed father in Disney's 1964 classic, based on the enchanting fable by Paul Gallico. Set in the Scottish highlands in 1912, the story focuses on Andrew MacDhui (Patrick McGoohan) a veterinarian who, after the death of his wife, has closed his heart to goodness and empathy-- toward his animal patients and his only child. Left essentially an orphan, Mary (Karen Dotrice) finds love from her cat, Thomasina, until a tragedy injures the cat and her father orders it to be killed. A tenderhearted maiden (Susan Hampshire) finds Thomasina, detects a heartbeat, and nurses the feline back to health. Her healing powers eventually move beyond the animal kingdom into the lives of MacDhui and Mary. The stellar cast includes standout performances by Dotrice and Matthew Garber (who plays Mary's loyal chum)--better known as the duo, Jane and Michael Banks, in Mary Poppins. Best watched with kids and Kleenex. (Ages 5 and older) --Lynn Gibson

Rating: - Three Lives of Thomasina DVD Review
It's one of the very first movies I ever remember seeing as a very little girl. And Thomasina looks just like my old cat, Ginger.
Rating: - Wonderful "Three Lives of Thomasina"
It was great to see this film again after so many years. I first saw it in the theatre when I was a young girl and it made a lasting impression on me. Watching this DVD makes it all seem brand new again! A perfect cast that includes Patrick McGoohan, one of my favorite actors. Don't miss out on screening this one!
Rating: - Very Quaint Movie
This is one of Disney's classic live action films and time has been kind to it. Although several times through out the movie I realized that a movie like this one could not be made now a days because of the animal abuse issues, I think that the movie got across the point of kindness to your animal friends. Not a movie for small children because of the semi-graphic depictions of animal abuse. Better for 7+.

This was a Christmas gift & I couldn't find it anywhere. I'll turn to Amazon first from now on.
Rating: - The Three Lives of Thomasina
This is a wonderful family movie. Its amazing to take a trip back in time when God and prayer was still accepted by the mainstream and it was OK to make a non-religious movie with God in it. This will definately be a part of our movie library for many years to come.
