About Richie Rich's Christmas Wish
After getting blamed for spoiling Christmas, the richest kid in the world wishes he'd never been born. Unfortunately, a wishing machine, invented by professor Keenbean, picked up the wish and made it come true. Now Richie finds himself in a parallel world where his only hope is to find professor Keenbean and the wishing machine so he can wish things back to normal.
Directed by John Murlowski, Richie Rich's Christmas Wish leans on a strong ensemble — David Gallagher, Eugene Levy, Keene Curtis — 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 family titles of 1998.
