Movie description
Good things often come in little packages, as young Omri (Hal Scardino) discovers when he receives a present from his friend Patrick, a plastic Indian figure that comes to life after Omri locks him in his toy cupboard. Little Bear (Litefoot), an Iroquois Indian from 1761, opens up new worlds of thought, experience, and tolerance to young Omri. A few disastrous experiments with other toys in the cupboard and Patrick's insistence on receiving his own living toy reveals to Omri that the "toys" have feelings just as he does, no matter how small their stature. Frank Oz (BOWFINGER) directs from a script from Melissa Mathison (E.T.).

Editorial reviews
"...THE INDIAN IN THE CUPBOARD is capable of creeping up on you and aiming straight for the heart..."
Sight and Sound - p.42-3 - Nick James
"...Refreshingly sophisticated..." -- Rating: B+
Entertainment Weekly - p.60 - Melissa Pierson
"...A paragon of the genre..." - Recommended
Premiere - p.88 - Howard Karren
"...[The] effects cleverly capture the little-guy-in-the-big-room scenario....Litefoot cuts a striking figure..."
Variety - Brian Lowry
"...The most self-effacing of films, a gentle and low-key effort directed in a determinedly non-flashy manner....Scardino is one of the few child actors who actually seems like a real kid..."
Los Angeles Times - p.F1 - Kenneth Turan
