I do remember this. I think I found it once, apparently on tape then, and was surprised to see Eddie Albert and Tammy Grimes listed as the little parents. It was long before the internet, so I really don't recall how I saw the casting.
As it was, when I first viewed it, I didn't recognize Albert, about the only one I would have known.
I just saw the Arrietty movie and decided to check out this one to see how different it was.
I won't spoil it, but I do recall an attempt to take out the little people, and how effective it seemed to me, seeing the furniture that had been to the little people's size (and therefore was natural size for Albert and Grimes) suddenly being trounced around.
This 'attempt' wasn't in the cartoon, so clearly someone did some re-structuring of the story. Don't know which.
I know this version was very low-budget looking, and clearly must not have been that well done for a 7-yr-old to notice.
I do remember there was a pleasantness to it. Don't recall any of the big people tho.
Wouldn't mind seeing it again for some of the actors and some of the effectiveness.
