“It's an Alphabeautiful Mathemagical New Musical Movie!”

Milo (Butch Patrick) is a boy who finds every day dull, until a magic tollbooth turns up in his room and he drives his toy car through it. On the other side is an animated kingdom in turmoil, its princesses Rhyme and Reason gone missing. Dave Monahan directed the live-action scenes and Abe Levitow the animation, and Milo, bored only an hour before, is asked to help bring them back.
