Product: The Last Unicorn [VHS] (1982)
Rating: 5.0
Classic fantasy
The Last Unicorn stands out as that rarest of beasts: a film far better then the book. This can be attributed to the fact that the book's author, Peter S. Beagle, was forced bt the constraints of film to pare his work down to the bare essentials. The Last Unicorn is marketed as a children's film, but it's far more than that -- a tale of redemption, of the search for identity, truth and lost innocence. Molly Grue's meeting with the Unicorn stands as one of the most poignant moments in cinema.
