DR. DOOLITTLE COMES HOME
By Adnews Staff
U.S.-based 20th Century Fox Entertainment will release the home video version of the kids movie, Dr. Doolittle, next week in North America. The movie features Eddie Murphy as a veterinarian, Dr. Dolittle, who can actually talk to animals, and the animals talk back. The movie release will be promoted in Canada and the U.S. using TV ads created by CMP Film & Design of Los Angeles. In Canada, Fox has organized a "Talk With the Animals" contest this weekend at PETsMART stores. Under the plan, judges will select the best of all eligible owner and pet entries who best demonstrate the ability to communicate with one another. The local winners will each win PETsMART merchandise, pet insurance for one full year and $100 in 20th Century Fox videos. All finalists will have a chance to win a one-week African Safari Adventure, complete with pet care while they're away.
