Johnny Appleseed

When Johnny Appleseed, portrayed by Martin Short, travels across the land with a cooking pot on his head and his pockets filled with apple seeds, the villagers quickly learn that there’s nothing wrong with being an individual...and thinking for yourself. The award-winning classic folk tale is brought to life by an all-star cast that includes a young Milly Ringwald as Jenny Smith, and the multi-talented Rob Reiner as the cruel trading post owner.
