He travels to Aladdin's village, identified as being near the border with China, where he enlists Aladdin's help by pretending to be his long-lost uncle and offering to leave his wealth to Aladdin.

This film stays very faithful to the original down to the smallest details, save for the kangaroo-rat that suddenly appears twenty minutes into the movie and subsequently follows Aladdin around, serving no purpose in the story but fulfilling the role of token animal mascot. The story takes some illogical and confusing jumps at the point where Aladdin begins to court the princess, and the extravagant animation that had characterised Toei films of the 60s, when Toei had the best animators around, had become a thing of the past long before this point; but this is still an above-average film, in large part because of the screenplay that stays so faithful to the original. The character designs are slightly more western-looking than one is accustomed to seeing in anime.

John Lennon & Yoko One: Give Peace A Song
For the first time, Andrea Bocelli presents a full length spanish album that features no classical influences. Spanish guitars flourish, accordions and harmonicas provide charming melodies, traditional Latin percussion insistently keeps the tempo. Sometimes Andrea shares the spotlight with just a grand piano. Beautiful orchestras remain, but for 'Amor' Andrea stylistically exchanges the grandeur of a 19th century European opera house for the romance of a 20th century Hollywood sound studio. Amor features Latin American classics including: 'Besame Mucho' (the song was a million selling US hit for Jimmy Dorsey & His Orchestra in 1941). Universal. 2006.
