Not Just For Animal Lovers!
If the only “Dr. Dolittle” you’ve ever known is Eddie Murphy’s rendition, you need to see Rex Harrison’s original performance! The first “Dolittle” has the remake and its sequel beat by a mile! Sure, it has the look and feel of those campy 1960’s movies, like “Mary Poppins” and “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.” But it also has the same comfy and family-friendly appeal. The original movie best captures the image of Hugh Lofting’s famous veterinarian, in 19th-century England, just as he should be! So never mind Eddie Murphy, and enjoy the real Dr. Dolittle!

Doctor Dolittle Charm
It’s 1845 in Puddleby-on-the-Marsh, England. On a rainy day, proud Irish cat-food salesman Anthony Newley (as Matthew Mugg) introduces blond pre-teen pal William Dix (as Thomas “Tommy” Stubbins) to the “greatest animal doctor in the world” – he’s Rex Harrison (as John Dolittle). The trio become fast friends. “Doctor Dolittle” is a genius who can talk to all kinds of animals, in nearly 500 languages. A veterinarian, Doolittle is a reluctant vegetarian. This is understandable, because many animals live with him. To raise money and good will, Dolittle and his two friends take a newly acquired “Pushmi-pullyu” (picture a two-headed llama) from Tibet to display in the circus, which turns out to be quite an adventure…

The main problem with this adventure is running time. This film is way too long. Perhaps, if it were better, one wouldn’t be so bored. Original writer Hugh Lofting’s books were delightful and ended too soon, but movie seems to go on forever. Although it initially sounds like a great casting choice, Mr. Harrison is unable to summon the needed charm. The veteran actor should have walked through the role with few problems, but is done in by poor pace, staging and (again) running time. Harrison also butchers the strongest song in the musical; hopefully, he re-recorded Leslie Bricusse’s “(If I Could) Talk to the Animals” at some point. It became a hit in other versions. Perhaps the most memorable version was recorded by Anthony Newley…

To add a love interest, the 20th Century Fox team slips a new character in “Dolittle” universe – pretty young Samantha Eggar (as Emma Fairfax). At first, it seems like the studio will attempt to duplicate Harrison’s “My Fair Lady” (1964) romance. Harrison sings, “I like the way you look,” in lieu of, “I’ve grown accustomed to your face.” However, Ms. Eggar also appears interested in Mr. Newley and the llama. None of stars show much chemistry on screen…

Highly-regarded actor Richard Attenborough (as Albert Blossom) provided the “Golden Globes” with an easy “Supporting Actor” award target, while money and muscle helped the studio to an otherwise inexplicable nine “Academy Award” nominations, including “Best Picture”. Cut by half and presented in two parts as a TV Special, this work be fine entertainment for kids, but to make entire families sit through it in a movie theater veers close to child abuse.

*** Doctor Dolittle (12/5/67) Richard Fleischer ~ Rex Harrison, Anthony Newley, Samantha Eggar, William Dix
