speaking of old, vaguely creepy animated films

does anyone else remember an animated version of Dickens' David Copperfield, except all the characters were animals, and they worked in a cheese factory and there were there scary-ass purple globby people that lived under the factory?

I swear I'm not making it up. I remember watching it as a kid. There might have been music.

I can't find it on the IMDB and I'm trying to remember if maybe it had a title other than "david copperfield."

Does *anyone* know what I'm talking about?

I remember! I was positively in love with that movie. I still have a copy, but I can't find it to save my life.

This is the listing for it, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106547/, but they've got the wrong poster up or something, so it's really confusing. I finally found the Qwikflicks entry (http://www.qwikfliks.com/dvd_info.asp?movID=214457) for it and cross-referenced the names of the voice actors.

I was fortunate enough to capture that one the year they stopped showing it. I watch it almost every Christmas! Julian Lennon voiced David & Howie Mandel voiced his pal Mealy. Joseph Marcel was a delight as Mr. Micawber, and Michael York was great as Murdstone. It has a song, "Is There Anyone", which was quite good.
