Steve Martino directs this animated family comedy based on the characters from the 'Peanuts' comic strip. When a new kid moves in to the house next door, Charlie Brown (voice of Noah Schnapp) sees it as an opportunity to make a new start with someone who doesn't yet know about his inability to make friends. Learning that his new neighbour is in fact a very pretty Little Red-Haired Girl (Francesca Capaldi), he turns his attention to winning her affection, not just friendship. With his trusty dog Snoopy (Bill Melendez) in tow, Charlie Brown sets about wooing the Little Red-Haired Girl in every unconventional way he knows how.
In The Complete Peanuts 1963-64: this volume is particularly rich in never-before-reprinted strips: Over 150 (more than one fifth of the book!) have never seen the light of day since their original appearance over 40 years ago, so this will be a trove of undiscovered treasures even for avid Peanuts collectors. These "lost" strips include Linus making a near-successful run for class president that is ultimately derailed by his religious beliefs (two words: "great" and "pumpkin"), and Snoopy getting involved with a group of politically fanatical birds. One wonders: Was it the political edge in these stories that got them consigned to oblivion for so long? Also worthy of note is an extended, never-reprinted sequence in which Snoopy gets ill and heads to the veterinarian hospital... Also in this volume: Lucy's attempts at improving her friends branches out from her increasingly well-visited nickel psychiatry booth to an educational slideshow of Charlie Brown's faults (it's so long there's an intermission!). Also, Snoopy's doghouse begins its conceptual expansion, as Schulz reveals that the dog owns a Van Gogh, and that the ceiling is so huge that Linus can paint a vast (and as it turns out unappreciated) "history of civilisation" mural on it.
