If you loved Jim Button and Luke the Engine Driver, try The Thief Lord
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theyboth carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Adventure / Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Jim Button and Luke the Engine Driver, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Thief Lord is
This children’s adventure trades plucky orphans for Venetian canals and a thief with a flair for the dramatic. Two brothers hide in plain sight among waterways and old theaters, supported by a gang of young crooks and their strangely charming ringleader. When a bumbling detective starts poking around and a time-spinning treasure unexpectedly surfaces, suddenly their gimmicks have real consequences.
