BEAUTY AND THE BEAST AND OTHER FAIRY TALES

DESCRIPTION

---

Four titles from the famed father of special effects, Ray Harryhausen, in his inimitable stop-motion "puppetmation,' and a special version of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, with voice-over narration illustrated with a series of stills (not by Ray Harryhausen) :

• BEAUTY AND THE BEAST - The classic story told with dramatic clarity and fidelity to the substance of the original tale. A moving love story as well as a fairy tale.

• LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD - A colorful retelling of the story of a girl who meets a wolf while visiting her grandmother. This Ray Harryhausen version is a must for young children and for all of us who want to revisit the classic story.

• RAPUNZEL - Ray Harryhausen faithfully animates the story of Rapunzel who is held by a witch in a tower, accessible only by climbing Rapunzel's long hair.

• HANSEL AND GRETEL - The story of two children abandoned by their father in the woods who find a witch and a gingerbread house. By Ray Harryhausen.

• THE STORY OF KING MIDAS- This fable of a king who wishes for a touch of gold only to find that such magic brings with it the potential for grief when his daughter is turned to gold is a must-see for all. By Ray Harryhausen.

"Due to customer demand, Hollywood Select offers its full catalog on DVD-R in a market test. This title is part of that program. This is basically the VHS version of the title in DVD format. It will be delivered in a plain case with title information on the disc . . . no frills! Titles that sell substantially eventually will be offered in a chaptered version. This test DVD-R is offered without chaptered authoring. DVD-R discs are compatible in most newer DVD players and DVD-capable computers."
