A live-action adaptation of Carlo Collodi's classic 1883 novel. The tale centers on an elderly puppet-maker named Geppetto, and his relationship with Pinocchio, his wood-carved creation who magically comes to life -- and whose nose grows whenever he tells a lie. Geppetto, who has no children of his own, becomes a "father" to Pinocchio, and the two develop a special bond. But that union is endangered by the colorful, villainous Lorenzini, who wants to use the toy as an attraction at his dark, insidious carnival.
And unfortunately, Lorenzini always gets what he wants....
A touching, live-action adaptation of the classic Carlo Collodi tale of a lonely woodworker whose puppet son magically comes to life. Jonathan Taylor Thomas serves as the voice behind Geppetto's wooden companion.
Released theatrically in the USA July 26, 1996.
