   Aug 1, 2024 · Harold and the Purple Crayon. As someone who venerates Harold and the Purple Crayon, Crockett Johnson ’s 1955 hymn to the power of imagination (I gift every love one’s new baby with a copy of the book with a purple crayon taped inside), the idea of a film adaptation has always filled me with a certain sense of trepidation.

   Aug 2, 2024 · The Telegraph. Jul 31, 2024. This bright children’s adventure, loosely adapted from a picture book about a young boy whose drawings become real, feels like the sort of thing Jim Carrey might have made in his first flush of success. It’s silly, relentlessly amiable, and embraces the low-stakes playfulness of its conceit.

   Will there be a 'Harold and the Purple Crayon' movie?

   • People have been threatening to make a movie out of the beloved children’s book “Harold and the Purple Crayon” for decades. When a visionary director like Spike Jonze was attached to a live-action screen adaptation of Crockett Johnson’s volume, the movie did sound more promising than threatening. (Jonze later left the project.)

   What is Harold and the Purple Crayon about?

   • A high-concept treatment that misses out on the blissful simplicity of its source material, Harold and the Purple Crayon is a tribute to imagination that's content to only color inside the lines. Levi capers around with a big, goofy smile and a squeak in his voice -- but there’s more desperation than humour in the performance.

   What is Harold's Purple Crayon?

   • This wonder will arrive through a tool of “pure imagination” (they really say that!). That is, Harold’s purple crayon, whose concoctions add some not-insubstantial visual interest to the proceedings. One scene in a department store, in which an actual puma and a too-functional kid’s helicopter ride contribute some anarchic slapstick, is a keeper.

   Oct 2, 2024 · And it should have been easier with Purple Crayon. The 1955 children's book married simplicity with child-like imagination - a kid with a magical crayon who can manifest his own destiny with one scribble. It spawned a number of sequels at the time, and, twenty years ago, enjoyed a few more - boundless imagination on where it could go.
