Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart is set in the late 19th century Edinburgh, where little Jack is born on a day so cold that his heart remains frozen. Madeleine the midwife saves his life by inserting a cuckoo clock in place of his defective heart. It will work, she warns him, as long as Jack observes three golden rules. First of all, he must never touch the hands of the clock. Secondly, he must control his anger. And last, but certainly not least, he must never, ever fall in love. The moment Jack sets eyes on a young girl singing on a street corner, the hands of his clock-heart begin to race. Desperate to find her again, Jack launches himself into a romantic quest that will lead him from the lochs of Scotland, to the city of Paris and all the way to Andalusia.
MY REVIEW
Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart was a unique movie to
experience. This is a love story steeped in adventure and interesting
hijinks. The sound track is much
different than your typical children's movie which grabbed the attention of the
kids and kept it the whole way through. We enjoyed the movie and are happy to
have added it to our collection.
Disclosure: All opinions are my own. I received Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart at no cost for the purpose of this review. No other compensation was received.
