The magic of the lakes, forests and palaces is breathed into life through the splendid setting by John Macfarlane and the perfect score by Tchaikovsky.

A different way of telling a story
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
