Storyline

Things are not going well in the depression-era town of Castle Gate. Mr. Ribaldi, a mysterious rich man with a disfigured face and an abrasive personality, has just bought and moved into a long-vacant mansion. Bonnie, an adolescent girl who loves to sing, ends up working for Ribaldi so that her family can stay in their house. But Ribaldi is quite an accomplished musician himself, and he is soon giving Bonnie voice lessons. Meanwhile, local businesses are being shut down by foreclosures, and the townspeople suspect Ribaldi is responsible. Written by Joe McCauley <mccauley_je@lfs.loral.com>

Trivia

Mr. Ribalidi's crest, a calligraphic R with a crown over it, can be seen many places: on Bonnie's music folder, the magic mirror, Ribaldi's porch bench where he and Porter talk, his record book (where he keeps track of who he gives checks to), and Ribaldi's iron fences. See more »

Quotes

Bonnie Nelson: [upon entering the auditorium] Wow! It's like a church.
Hans: In many ways it is a church. So at least it will not frighten you, but inspire you.
Bonnie Nelson: Thanks.

What a refreshing lesson and entertainment all in one!
13 October 2000 | by See all my reviews

This was such a wonderful and well made movie. A piece of art and a movie for the family to truly enjoy time together! You will be moved and be blessed by the music and story. You won't soon forget the lessons either.
