A spirited, globe-trotting family adventure centered on two siblings' quest to rescue their father, blending exotic locales with warmth and optimism.
Two teenagers, Mary (Hayley Mills) and Robert (Keith Hamshere) are lead by Professor Paganel (Maurice Chevalier) on a search expedition for the children's shipwrecked sea captain father. This Disney film was based upon Jules Verne's 1868 adventure novel Captain Grant's Children.
