One
of Hollywood's legendary visionaries, George Pal was a pioneer of
stop-motion animation and an innovator in the science fiction and
fantasy genres. Collected here are three programs focusing on the man
behind classics like WAR OF THE WORLDS and THE TIME MACHINE, and on the
influence his work had on the film industry. FANTASY FILMS OF GEORGE PAL
is a documentary exploring Pal's life and career, featuring rare
interviews with Pal himself as well as with notable contemporaries like
Ray Bradbury, Charlton Heston, and Janet Leigh. THE PUPPETOON MOVIE is
hosted by lovable animated characters Gumby and Pokey and also includes
many of Pal's other imaginative stop-motion creations. Finally, THE
GREAT RUPERT was Pal's first full-length movie, a warm and creative romp
about a clever squirrel who comes to the aid of a needy vaudeville
family.
