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.
Editor's Verdict
"The primary indicators for this film (Setting, Plot Centrality, Themes, Iconography, and Resolution) are all rated as 'None'. The only identified 'Christmas Element' is a 'Holiday Release,' which is insufficient to classify a film based on its narrative content."
