 I bought this DVD using some reward dollars from my Disney VISA, because I have vivid memories of seeing this as a child. The plot involves a young brother and sister with ESP and telekinetic powers on the run from evil rich folks who want to keep them captive, and all kinds of Disney effects (cheesy, but fun) happen until the big finish where they discover they're really castaway aliens! The boy has to play harmonica to use his powers, and I remember buying a little harmonica after seeing this movie, just in case I had secret powers waiting to come out (actually, one of the bonus interviews on the DVD talks about how most kids remember this movie because they felt that way). The kids are really cute and talented, of course, even with some pretty wacky dialogue, and who wouldn't enjoy a movie with a flying Winnebago in it? This DVD is like a single-disc version of the Vault Disney series, so it has lots of great bonus material, including my favorite segment, the Disney Studio Album (for 1975 this time), including some quick shots of the opening of Space Mountain at Walt Disney World!
