Details:
The music is coordinated and follows the story line. The story is written by children''s book author Jeanne Wood and was based upon an original screenplay written by Dennis Mahdik. Additional information and cartoons of the story characters and the Cast and Crew are included in the https://www.tradebit.com web site.
The story takes place in the little town of Paris Valley in the year c.1919. The incumbent mayor has made the decision to leave office after several successful terms. The story begins with a political rally in the town square where a crowd has gathered to meet the two new candidates. On the conservative side, well respected town banker Jonathan Gracey... and on the opposing side the town''s undertaker Willard McCobb.
We are also introduced to Jonathan Gracey''s son Phillip, and his comical possum buddy, Gravitts. At the rally Phillip notices the Paris Valley City Clerk (Magdalena Stafferd). Suddenly Phillip develops an instant interest in city government. However, Magdalena shows no interest in Phillip (at first) because of his appearance.
As the days go by, McCobb (our villain) and his henchmen make sure that McCobb wins the race for mayor. He has plans to use his new position to line his own pockets with cash... and now that he can see what a beautiful woman Magdalena is... he wants to win her heart too!
Phillip has his own ideas about Magdalena and in order to make a good impression with her, he makes the decision to clean up his act. Magdalena notices the profound change and begins to fall for Phillip, much to the dismay of McCobb. McCobb fearing he''ll lose whatever chance he might have with Magdalena has to act quickly, so he gives Phillip and Gravitts jobs and sends them away to the big city where his partner in crime can keep an eye on them. While there, Phillip and Gravitts discover McCobb''s sinister plan and rush back to Paris Valley to warn their fellow citizens.
McCobb and one of his cohorts are run out of town on the rails. Phillip and Gravitts save Paris Valley from harm, and Jonathan Gracey (Phillip''s Dad) is duly appointed mayor. Phillip and Magdalena fall in love, and Gravitts discovers that he too has a secret admirer (Lulu Filbert). In the end, everything works out for the best.
All of the ingredients were ready and prepared for production into a feature length film but, unfortunately, the most important element of all, i.e., funding, was not available and the film never happened. But at least we can share with you some great characters and a great story and above all some great music!
