Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown

Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown (2011) is a Peanuts animated special you can watch online on iFILM. Linus receives the worst news of his young life: grandma is coming, and she's made it her mission to permanently retire his security blanket. For most kids, it's nothing. For Linus, it's a full emergency.

The whole Peanuts gang rallies around him with advice and plans — none of which help. Directors Andrew Bill and Frank Molieri keep the Schulz tone intact: a child's attachment to a piece of fabric is treated with exactly the gravity it deserves in a kid's world, and that gap between the stakes and the problem is where the comedy lives. Based on Charles Schulz's comics, the special runs 46 minutes. Stream Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown online on iFILM.
