Fat Albert Movie
Bill Cosby's Saturday-morning cartoon series comes to the big screen with himself as a co-writer. The movie is based on William H. Cosby, Jr.'s comedy monologues about his childhood, centered on a group of urban pals growing up in a Philadelphia neighborhood. Animated heroes unexpectedly appear in the present day as real-life characters: a corpulent boy named Albert and his friends Bill, Weird Harold, Rudy, Mushmouth, Russell, and Dumb Donald. Fat Albert pulls his friends into trouble when they "fall" out of their TV world into the real world, where Fat Albert tries to help a young girl, Doris, make friends. However, the things get complicated when Fat Albert falls for Lauri, older sister of his new friend, making his pals worry about their leader who may never want to return to his cartoon world again.
