A Magical Vision of Storytelling on the silverscreen
As a child, i recalled watching this awesome piece of animation continuously. Now as a young adult at the age of 17, i find it more and more mesmerizing to watch this movie more and more with a better understanding of the heroine and her tale as a beautiful unicorn in search of the rest of her "people" that were dragged to the ends of the earth by the strong and dangerously powerful Red Bull..the caretaker of the Unicorns.The voices aiding in the tale are also wonderful and breath a new sense of life into the characters of Schmedrick,Molly,Prince Lir',the evil King Haggard, are just a few examples of great "acting".From the opening sequence of the unicorn in her splendor as a magnificent creature longing for a companion until the closing sequence of the unicorn returning home with a better understanding of True love, this is surely a delight not worth missing. This film is an excellent adaption of the book by Peter S. Beagle and I reccomend that everyone agrees with me to pick up a copy of Beagle's novel BEFORE or after you watch this wonderful work because either way, you're in for an absolute treat full of adventure,fantasy,and of course,True Love.
