Andre is a heartwarming family film released in 1994. The story revolves around a young girl named Toni Whitney, played by Tina Majorino, who lives on an island in Maine. Her family runs a harbor where they take care of the seals and sea lions. One day, Toni and her brother Steve (Shane Meier) discover a young seal washed up on the shore. They take care of him and nurse him back to health, but soon realize that he isn't a seal at all - he's a wild creature called a fur seal named Andre. Toni becomes attached to Andre and forms a special bond with him. However, they soon realize that Andre is not meant to be kept in captivity.

Keith Carradine plays Harry Whitney, Toni's father, who is skeptical about keeping Andre but eventually agrees. Chelsea Field portrays Paula, Toni's mother, who is more empathetic towards Toni's attachment to Andre.

As time goes on, Andre grows bigger and stronger, and Toni realizes that he must be returned to the wild. But doing so means risking Andre's life as he is not adapted to the cold waters of Maine. The family and their community must come together to make a decision that will impact Andre's future.

Throughout the film, we see the growth of Toni's character as she learns to let go and do what is best for Andre. The movie also touches upon themes of animal welfare, conservation, and the relationship between humans and wild creatures.

The acting is exceptional, especially by Tina Majorino as she brings her character's emotions to life. The film also showcases beautiful scenic shots of coastal Maine.

Overall, Andre is a heartwarming film that teaches valuable lessons about animal welfare, conservation, and empathy. It is a perfect movie for the whole family to enjoy together.

In conclusion, Andre is a movie that tells the story of the bond between a young girl and a wild creature. It teaches important values about empathy, conservation, and letting go. With exceptional acting and beautiful scenic shots, Andre is a must-watch for families.
