About Nathaniel the Grublet
Nathaniel the Grublet tells the story of a young boy Grublet, his dog Snuggles, and his brothers who live on the outskirts of Agapeland. Faced with the temptation to earn a living by stealing like his five dishonest brothers, Nathaniel must choose to live like them or do what he knows is right. Only when he meets "Majesty" does Nathaniel's life begin to change.
Directed by Jeff Parker, Nathaniel the Grublet leans on a strong ensemble — Shandra Bailey, Mark Pendergrass, Buddy Miller — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1987.
