FairyTale: A True Story movie was released Oct 12, 2010 by the Paramount Home Entertainment studio. When two young English cousins claim to have captured fairies on film, their photographs attract the attention of legendary skeptic Harry Houdini (Harvey Keitel) and legendary dreamer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Peter O'Toole). FairyTale: A True Story DVD for sale But are the fairies real, or are they simply the wistful projections of the two lonely girls, whose fragile spirits have been crushed by the death of a brother and the loss of a father in World War I? Based on a true case from 1917 in which the girls' photos turned out to be a hoax, but rendered with an infectious fanciful spirit that equivocates on the existence of magical creatures.   ...See Full Description

A Great Movie For ALL Ages!
A must for all of those who have seen fairies or want to see them. They are real!!! My Grandson sees them and says they look just like the fairies in the movie. I have seen my angels. We are not alone on this planet... others are here to help us. I am thrilled to see such a touching film on the market. Thanks for doing such a great job!

A beautiful movie!
FairyTale: A True Story movie Two young girls who believe that fairies are real attempt to prove it to the world in this drama based on actual events. In 1917, there is little to be happy about in the Wright household in West Yorkshire, England. Polly (Phoebe Nicholls) and her 12-year-old daughter Elsie (Florence Hoath) are still grieving over the death of Elsie's younger brother, and Polly's niece Frances (Elizabeth Earl) has come to stay with them after her father was declared missing in action during World War I. Polly longs for some sort of proof that there is a life beyond our own, while the two girls ardently believe in fairies and enthusiastically study legend and lore. One day, Elsie and Frances produce photographs of fairies that they claim were playing in their garden; Polly believes that they are real, and soon the snapshots attract international attention. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Peter O'Toole), author of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries and a confirmed spiritualist, declares the photos "as genuine as the King's beard," while illusionist Harry Houdini (Harvey Keitel), who has devoted much time and energy to exposing phony mediums and psychics, takes a more cynical view, though he too is eventually convinced that the fairies are real. While Fairy Tale: A True Story presents the appearance of the fairies as fact, analysis of the photographs proved them to be fakes (especially after the same fairies were discovered as illustrations in a children's book published before the photos were taken). The real-life Elsie Wright admitted late in life that the fairy photos were a hoax performed as a "little joke" and that she was always surprised that so many people believed This is a movie that is so very enjoyable you can watch it again and again! The music also is beautiful!

Astounding
The movie FairyTale A True Story was captivating. Perfect for all generations. Its eye catching and unique, its a movie that will be loved for years by people young and old. It brings a new meaning to the words fantasy and fictional. I loved this movie and it truly touched the hearts of the thousands that watched it. I hope they make a sequel thats just as good because it couldn't be better than this FairyTale.
