 (2 Customer Reviews)
This 1954 feature film used stop-animation and hand-sculpted dolls to create a fantasy land of unearthly beauty. Set to Englbert Humperdinck's classic 1892 opera, ung by some of the most acclaimed performers of the 1950's, this recording was nominated for a Grammy Award. A truly entrancing version of the children's opera, written in 1954 by Englebert Humperdinck. Beautiful dolls act out the well-known and loved folk tale "Hansel and Gretel".
The beautiful painted sets make the production a joy to behold. Englebert Humperdinck's 1893 opera is performed by comedic opera diva Anna Russell (among others) and staged with kinemin puppets on lushly designed sets. Renowned puppeteer Jim Gamble is one of the masterminds behind this highly entertaining and innovative production. Full title: "Children's Cultural Collection: Hansel and Gretel, An Opera Fantasy"

This characteristically spectacular Ross Hunter musical production, a parody of the films of the 1920s, stars Julie Andrews as the eager young Millie Dillmount. She arrives in New York City in the 1920s intent on a job as a secretary with a rich, handsome, eligible boss. Deciding to adopt the appearance of a flapper, she has her hair bobbed. At a women's hotel run by Mrs. Meers (Beatrice Lillie), who also runs a white slavery ring, she meets the beautiful, naive Miss Dorothy (Mary Tyler Moore). Millie does get a job with a handsome boss, Trevor Graydon (John Gavin), but he has eyes only for Miss Dorothy, and Millie is forced to make do with Jimmy Smith (James Fox), a paper-clip salesman. After they've returned to the hotel from attending a party at the Long Island estate of wealthy Muzzy van Hossmere (Carol Channing), Millie finds that Miss Dorothy has disappeared. When she and Jimmy detect the scent of opium in Mrs. Meers's room, they realize she has a sideline. The valiant Jimmy must go in drag to uncover the whereabouts of the white slavers' hideout. The cast and crew perform admirably in this light farce that is almost too sweet for its own good.
