1969, English. Directed by Bill Melendez.

Charlie Brown and the Peanuts Gang in their First Movie!

Poor Charlie Brown. He can't fly a kite, and he always loses in baseball. Having his faults projected onto a screen by Lucy doesn't help him much either. Against the sage advice and taunting of the girls in his class, he volunteers for the class spelling bee.
