After her father's ship is carried off by a sudden storm, the spunky Pippi Longstocking is stranded with her horse, Alfonso, and monkey, Mr. Nilsson, and takes up residence in the old family home, which is thought by neighborhood children to be haunted. Soon, two children, Tommy and Annika, venture into the house only to meet up with Pippi. The three soon become friends and get into various adventures together, including cleaning the floor with scrubbing shoes, dodging the "splunks", going down a river in barrels, and helping Pippi with the problem of having to go to a children's home. Older children will probably get the most out of this movie.
Love the movie, unfortunately the DVD failed an hour in so we couldnt finish it

Not totally unexpected when buying a used DVD, but disappointing. The movie itself is great though, one scary scene of Pippi's dad getting swept overboard at the beginning, which I would skip for my young kids, but the rest is very silly and musical. Pippi is a strong character who exhibits both whimsey and kindness.
