Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown (1975)
It's Valentine's Day again and Charlie Brown dreams the seemingly hopeless dream to receiving a valentine from anyone. All the while, the rest of the gang have their own trials whether it be Linus' struggle to get the biggest card he can for his beloved teacher, or Lucy trying to get some token from Schroeder while Snoopy and Woodstock are having fun spearing valentines on each other's nose.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Happy Valentine's Day guys today I'm going to review The peanuts Valentines Special "Be My Valentine Charlie Brown". This Special is Charlie wanting a Valentine from someone but no ones give him one. I feel bad for Charlie Brown that no one gives him a Valentine until the end. As a kid a watched this Special a lot around Valentine's Day. It's not as good The Christmas,Thanksgiving and Halloween Specials but it's okay. I do Like the Part where Linus was throwing the chocolates and Snoopy and Woodstock where eating them. Anyway "Be My Valentine Charlie Brown" is a decent Valentine's Day and I give it a 8 out 10 stars. Anyway Guys Have a Happy Valentine's Days. See you
This cute, animated short (25 minutes) from 1975, has that always-optimistic, little, onion-headed boy, Charlie Brown, impatiently waiting by the mailbox for someone/anyone to send him a valentine (since Valentine's Day is just around the corner).Join the "Peanuts" gang as they merrily (or miserably) hold their Valentine's Day party at Birchwood Elementary School where everyone exchanges valentines with their favourites classmates.One of this cartoon's highlights is when Snoopy plays cupid, shooting suction-cup arrows from his bow. And then he puts on a hilarious Valentine's Day puppet show that features all sorts of realistic special effects."Peanuts" and all of its memorable characters was created by Charles M. Shulz, who is considered to be one of the most influential cartoonists of all time. Shulz died in 2000, at the age of 77, from cancer.
It's Valentine's Day. Charlie Brown keeps checking his mail box for valentines. Linus buys a big valentine for his teacher but Sally assumes it's for her. Lucy is going crazy for any sign from Schroeder. Linus is heart broken when the teacher leaves with her boyfriend. Charlie Brown has no valentine and Sally is mad that she's not getting the box of chocolate from Linus. Snoopy and Woodstock have their usual antics. I find some of voice work a bit harsh. I do like the various wacky stuff that Snoopy does. The puppet show comes out of nowhere but that's a fun side trip. Charlie Brown's desperation is fun. I love that he's so desperate that he grabs the pity valentine. It's missing some kind of central message but it's fun.
'Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown' is the Valentine's Day special for Charlie Brown and the Peanut Gang. It's also a sad episode. Every school student knows that February 14th means giving Valentines to your classmates. (When I went to school, you had to give to everyone and not just the most popular kids in school!) Charlie Brown is unpopular, so he does not receive any cards. It's a depressing little story, really.I didn't think this was an enjoyable story. I thought it went a little bit slow and dragged on. It didn't have the humor and the appeal that the Halloween special and Christmas special had.Poor Charlie Brown.
