Logan D A young girl named Clara goes on a quest to save her nutcracker, which has been kidnapped by mice. An unknown film to me. Takeo Nakamura worked on Santa Claus is Coming to Town and directed this beautiful film. The techniques utilized for the stop motion are remarkable and advanced for it's time. Sadly, he didn't direct much else. There was also this dark figure at the beginning, Ragman, whom I wished we had seen fleshed out more. Very dark for a children's film. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/25 Full Review Jack's A Random and frantic, but magical and beautifully-animated with catchy songs and a fun (albeit convoluted) story make this extremely obscure stop-motion gem enjoyable to the end! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/24/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a very different take on a classic Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Etrange vision du ballet mondialement connu grâce à sa music de Tchaikovsky mais ici mlheureusement, elle reste très discrète voir absente à part certains thèmes. Un joli conte pour enfant mais sans plus, cela magré la narration de Christopher Lee. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member I remember seeing this movie when I was like five years old. It's been stuck in my head ever since. I remember being extremely disturbed by the ragman. He was one of the creepiest images of my childhood. I wish I could see it again. There's nothing like a good twisted claymation movie. If you're a fan than you may also want to check out "The Secret Adventures Of Tom Thumb". Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member one of the scariest films every made. Excellent, great music, very 80s. I don't even like claymation, but I loved this. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
