Totally Minnie is a musical television special hosted by Suzanne Somers and starring Minnie Mouse. It first aired February 25, 1988 on NBC. It was the first film to feature Minnie Mouse in the lead role and up until the premiere of Mickey Mouse Works in 1999, this was the only time Minnie had any starring role. Russi Taylor, the original voice of Minnie at the time, actually met her future husband, Wayne Allwine, then voicing Mickey, while recording this special.




Plot


The film centers on nerd Maxwell Dweeb (Robert Carradine), who is a loner with no friends. While watching television, he sees an advertisement for the Minnie Mouse Center for the Totally Unhip, named after its owner, Minnie Mouse. Dweeb, in an effort to improve himself socially, decides to attend.
After being welcomed by the Director (Suzanne Somers), Dweeb is taken on a tour of the centre, where other Disney characters run various courses: Goofy is a fitness instructor, Donald Duck is a wardrobe manager and Pluto is a messenger boy. After finally meeting Minnie Mouse, Dweeb is taken on by the Director. After seeing Elton John sing a duet with Minnie in "Don't Go Breaking My Heart", Maxwell feels he has it figured out and displays his new hip personality with clothes akin to Elton's, but the Director stops him saying that it is just not him and that hipness doesn't equal emulation of another's style. Minnie decides to take Maxwell on a shopping spree. Then the Director, impressed by a newly made-over Maxwell Dweeb, decides to date him.
The film is intershot with various musical numbers including the duet "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" with Elton John (lip syncing to the original 1976 version) and Minnie (replacing Kiki Dee) and excerpts from early Disney shorts, including a D-TV The Pointer Sisters’ Neutron Dance & number of Janet Jackson's "Nasty" with a montage of male Disney villains such as Black Pete and Captain Hook shown.
