The Legend of Sleepy Hollow Review

We watch this video every year at Halloween. It is "just" a book turned into a film -- "just" imagine story time run by amazingly talented actors, artists and musicians instead of your local librarian (not to take anything away from your librarian!). Glenn Close is stupendous; the artwork is ingenious; the original music is wonderful.

I remember years ago I would go to the library with my grandmother and pick out this video every october. I had not seen it since,but for some reason I suddenly remembered it and was searching for a long time. I could not describe the animation,only i remembered that it was like still pictures,but the camera made it look as if they were moving. Glenn Close reads this book extremely well. I have ordered this "book on video" and I cant wait to watch it.

This movie has been shown in my language arts class for the last few years and has renewed interest in both the story and Washington Irving. I highly recommend it

The Rabbit Ears Productions, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is the age old tale of The Headless Horseman written by Washington Irving but told quite grippingly by Glenn Close (of 101 Dalmations fame). The music by Tim Story (Windham Hill Records) adds a hauntingly hypnotic touch to the marvelously illustrated scenery (by Robert Van Nutt). It's a "must have" for the young and the young at heart alike. I have looked a long time for this hard to find video all to no avail. Thanks to Amazon.com, it's part of my video library now.
