Real family film...love this!

A lot of people seem to have missed out on this film, which I think is a real shame. The Disney animation is beautiful with a slightly softer, almost watercolour like quality for the background. That's not the reason this is one of my favorites though.
It's a story with a very strong family message, but not in a 'traditional' family way. It's the story of a young orphaned Hawaiian girl 'Lilo' who's being brought up by her sister. He sister is trying to juggle looking after Lilo, with finding a family friendly job, and is under the watchful eye of the local social services.Not helped by Lilo's misshaps.
Lilo is taken to the local dog pound to pick out a pet to help her cope with the loss of her parents, which is where she mets Stitch. He's a genetically engineered alien, who's crash landed on earth having stolen a space ship, but can make himself look like a dog...sort of.
To say he's a bit mischevious would be an understatement, but Lilo convinces him to model himself on the ideal person...Elvis Presley!
While all this is going on, his creator (a mad scientist who was previously locked up for bad behaviour) and his sidekick (a cross dressing single eyed alien) have been sent to earth to try and recapture Stitch.
Sounds weired???????? It's brilliantly funny...honest.
The story continues with Lilo trying to teach Stitch how to be good, not get captured and about 'Ohana', the Hawaiian saying which means "nobody gets left behind or forgotton"
It's been out a few years now, so it's cheap to buy, so why not?????????
Everyone in my family loves this from my 7 year old neice to my 75 year old Mum. (Sorry Mum X)
