Product: The Last Unicorn (1982)
Rating: 5.0
A beautiful story for kids of all ages
I remember watching this movie when I was young and thought it was the most beautiful animated tale I have ever seen, and I still think that way. The story is about a lone unicorn (voiced by Mia Farrow) who leaves her enchanted forest in search of others just like her. No mortal can see her for what she truely is, except a grisled old mystic who captures her for her midnight carney of oddities and a bumbling magician called Shmendrick who releases her and helps her find the other unicorns. She encounters other strange people in her travels, including a dangerous Red Bull, who according to legend, forced all of the unicorns into the sea.This movie might not have the same drawing techniques as the animation of today (looks more like The Hobbit), but it certainly makes up for it with a full talented cast, including Jeff Bridges, and a wonderfully whimsical story line. I bought it and played it for my kids, and they love it. I can assure you that you'll love it too.
