| The
Fabulous Baron Munchausen
Brilliant film adaptation of the incredible stories
of Baron Munchausen mixing animation with live
action, as well as incorporating a seemingly revolutionary
technique of applying distinct and wildly varying
color jells throughout the movie. Directed by
Karel Zeman, who is known as the father of Czech
animated film, “The Fabulous Baron Munchausen”
is an astounding work of film genius, crafted
with painstaking detail and dedication to truly
capture the whimsical nature of Munchausen’s
breezy, airy tall tales.
Anyone who loves the Terry Gilliam Munchausen
film should certainly see this for a fascinating
take on the same story. Karel Zeman certainly
deserves a real revival and appreciation as a
true visionary filmmaker.
Highly recommended!
