Peanuts (live-action film)

Peanuts is a live-action film based on the Charles Schulz’s comic strip of the same name.

Young Charlie Brown has always wanted a dog. His parents drive him to the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm and buy him a beagle puppy named Snoopy. Charlie Brown takes him home and meanwhile attempts to train him as a normal dog.

Years pass and Snoopy has become a most unusual dog with abilities almost equal to those of his fellow humans. Charlie Brown, meanwhile, constantly struggles through everyday life, having footballs pulled away by Lucy as he tries to kick them, constantly losing at baseball, struggling to fly a kite, and being smitten by the Little Red-Haired Girl.
