Tommy Tricker and the Stamp Traveller
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tommy Tricker and the Stamp Traveller is the name of a 1988 Canadian film, which includes one of the first appearances of Rufus Wainwright. Wainwright also provides the song "I'm a Runnin'" and his sister, Martha Wainwright, provides the song "Tommy, Come Back" for the soundtrack.
It is a children's film in which a young boy, Ralph, and his sister discover a magical ability to travel the world on board postage stamps. Complicated by a series of rules, they are soon lost in such far-flung places as Australia and China. Plagued by a debilitating stutter, it is essentially a coming of age story wherein Ralph can speak unfettered by the movie's end.
The movie was written and directed by Michael Rubbo and is part of the Conte Pour Tous series of children's movies created by Les Productions la FĂȘte.
