It involves a little boy called Nemo who also wears pajamas and travels to a fantasy world, but otherwise the connection to McCay's strip is a loose one. In this film the fantasy world is a dark and dismal beach, and Nemo encounters characters from other works of fiction rather than those from the original strip. Instead of Flip or the Princess, Nemo meets [[Zorro]], [[Alice (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)\|Alice]], and [[Jules Verne]]'s [[Nautilus (Verne)\|Nautilus]] (which was led by [[Captain Nemo]]) ([http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087784/ see IMDB entry]).
