Nov 19, 2008 - I have never seen those you mentioned but they sound good. I'll have to wait for an NTSC version of that dvd set, I guess (but I doubt there will ever be one)

Feb 7, 2009 - Stunning visual ideas realised with great skill. There's a Lotte Reiniger DVD offer in todays Guardian (UK Sat 070902 edition). This sells it for me.....worth it to see this in best resolution possible

Nov 7, 2009 - Do you have any idea where I can see even a short part of Aucassin and Nicolette?

Turtleheart Says:

Dec 30, 2009 - It can be seen at the CinéRobothèque in Montréal or the Mediatheque in Toronto and is included in the German (all regions and PAL) DVD set »Doktor Dolittle & Archivschätze«.

Mar 22, 2010 - So Jack trespasses on The Giant's property, assaults The Giant (aided by The Giant's daughter), steals the magic hen, and as The Giant pursues him Jack chops down the beanstalk, leaving The Giant's daughter even more alone than before in the castle in the sky and an enormous man dead on their lawn. I feel more sympathy with The Giant in this version of the story, even if he does have a problem with the English.

Nov 7, 2010 - I had read about Reineger's silowette cutout animation but this is my first time seeing it! Thanks for showing it and maybe you could take a look at my hand drawn animated videos, WINGED SANDALS THE MAGIC ARROWS, and BALDER'S EGG that I made on my channel page on you tube. They have fantasy characters in them!

Nov 13, 2011 - Why

MrDanielNewton Says:

Feb 11, 2012 - If only you`d have uploded this video now, you`d have been able to fit it one video because YouTube videos can now go up to 15 munites. It`s a shame they were only 10 minuites when you uploded this. Mind you, you could have split this up in 2 videos.
