The Little Drummer Boy [DVD]
THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY retells the classic story of a lonely little boy who visits a manger in Bethlehem and discovers the greatest gift of all--love. Teddy Eccles provides the voice for Aaron, an orphaned boy with a knack for drumming whose only friends are a lamb and a donkey. After joining a party of three royal kings, Aaron finds himself part of a convoy to witness the birth of Jesus. As the wealthy kings bestow incense and myrrh on the babe, Aaron searches for a gift of his own--a song. Featuring a compelling soundtrack sung by the Vienna Boys Choir, THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY is a perfect holiday film. The movie both evokes a feeling of nostalgia from the early 1970s and demonstrates the timeless lesson of generosity to the unfortunate and poor. Directors Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin have adapted another winner with the biblical tale of THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY.

Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (Spanish) [DVD]
Kris Kringle (Mickey Rooney) is a young boy with an immense desire to do good things for others. In his home village of Sombertown, Kris has started a gift factory where he builds toys and gives them to all the local children. But when the evil ruler Burgermeister Meisterburger (Paul Frees) bans toys from the land, Kris is forced to go directly to Mother Nature and beseech her for assistance. With the help of magical elves and several special reindeer, Kris works hard to overcome the Burgermeister and deliver toys to all the children of the world, earning him the name Saint Claus, or Santa Claus. This timeless tale by Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin is narrated by Fred Astaire. One of the first Rankin-Bass Christmas specials (it was preceded by THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY in 1968), SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN received acclaim from both children and adults alike and spawned a number of similar films, including THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF SANTA CLAUS and THE YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS. The movie's detailed, macabre stop-action puppets and gothic tinge were clearly an influence on Henry Selick and Tim Burton's THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS, and it remains an important animated film to the moviemakers of today.

Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July [DVD]
When the evil Winterbolt learns the secret to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer's nose--it was bestowed upon him by a goddess and must be used only for acts of good--he plots to conquer the world on Christmas Eve by destroying Rudolph, Santa's guiding light. As Rudolph and Frosty travel south to work with a circus, Winterbolt puts his plan into action--first, he'll lift the spell that's protecting Frosty from melting in the southern heat, and, second, he'll cajole Rudolph into committing a crime that would disenchant the magical power of his nose and transform him into an ordinary reindeer. It's fun and thrills for Rudolph and Frosty as they team up for a joyous holiday celebration in July. The sequel of all animated sequels, RUDOLPH AND FROSTY'S CHRISTMAS IN JULY makes reference to a number of Arthur Rankin and Jules Bass films--RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER, SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN, and FROSTY THE SNOWMAN, to name a few. This movie features some high-quality animation and a number of wonderful Irving Berlin compositions. Only imagineers Rankin and Bass could deliver such holiday cheer just in time for the 4th of July. This summertime Christmas classic features the vocal talents of stars such as Jackie Vernon, Red Buttons, Ethel Merman, Mickey Rooney, and Shelley Winters.

The Year Without a Santa Claus (Deluxe Edition) [DVD]
Feeling exhausted and unappreciated by the children of the world, Santa Claus decides to take a year off from Christmas. Unable to rouse him from his sickbed, Mrs. Claus sends elves Jingle and Jangle and the reindeer Vixen to bring back proof that children still hold faith and admiration for Christmas. After narrowly escaping the clutches of villains Heat Miser and Snow Miser, the elves arrive in South Town, USA. There they are immediately ticketed by a policeman, and Vixen is thrown into an animal pound. When Santa Claus learns of their perils, he jumps from his bed and goes to the rescue. Posing as a human, the sickly Santa searches for Jingle, Jangle, and Vixen, and in his search he finds the best medicine of all, a generous family who still believes in the spirit of Christmas. Featuring the voices of Shirley Booth, Mickey Rooney, and the late great Dick Shawn, THE YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS is a poignant film that criticizes society's waning generosity for others. As the children of the world take the gift of giving for granted, it's up to the team of Rankin and Bass to show them what it would be like if Christmas ceased to exist.

The Last Unicorn (25th Anniversary Ed.) [DVD]
Weary of being alone in the vast forest, unicorn Amalthea (Mia Farrow) begins to wonder if she's the last of her kind. Following a rumor, she joins forces with feeblish wizard Schmendrick (Alan Arkin) and wayward barmaid Molly (Tammy Grimes) to look for the mystical Red Bull, a creature known to hunt and imprison unicorns. In order to walk unnoticed among men, Schmendrick magically transforms Amalthea into a beautiful woman. Together the three embark on a adventurous journey into the dark land of King Haggard, the man rumored to control the Red Bull. Based on Peter Beagle's novel of the same name, THE LAST UNICORN is a bright, colorful tale about love and loss. Farrow loans her fluttering voice indelibly to the lips of the unicorn, and Arkin is spot on playing the spell-casting wizard Schmendrick. The film also features the vocal talents of Jeff Bridges, Christopher Lee, and Angela Lansbury. Complete with an over-the-top soundtrack by the pop band America, THE LAST UNICORN is perhaps the high point of directors Arthur Rankin's and Jules Bass's film career. (They would soon move out of film to produce the two highly successful syndicated television series THUNDERCATS and SILVERHAWKS.)

Hobbit
Hobbits are simple folk. Small people with hairy feet, they are not cut out for adventure and prefer to laze about and eat. A particular hobbit, Bilbo Baggins (Orson Bean), is taken by surprise one morning when the mighty wizard Gandalf (John Huston) knocks at his door. Soon Bilbo finds himself inducted into a party of dwarves bent on reclaiming their mountain from the deadly fire-breathing dragon, Smaug. Insisting that the timid Bilbo is a master thief, Gandalf insures the danger-loving dwarves that the quest will include many mishaps and perilous encounters with goblins, trolls, and dwarf-eating spiders. Among other things that the reluctant Bilbo discovers on this amazing journey is an enchanted ring that turns its wearer invisible, and soon the hobbit transforms from a master bumbler into a master burglar. Based on the beloved novel by J.R.R. Tolkien, THE HOBBIT is an animated classic that was brought to the TV screen in the late 1970s by Arthur Rankin and Jules Bass. Rerun by networks for years, this tale of Middle-earth consistently awes viewers and has inspired a whole new generation of Tolkien fans. The story continues in Ralph Bakshi's THE LORD OF THE RINGS and concludes in THE RETURN OF THE KING.

Frosty's Winter Wonderland/Twas The Night Before Christmas
It's Christmastime again, and Frosty, the lovable snowman, has come out to play with the children of winter. Of course, no snowman would be complete without a snowwoman, so the children fashion him a bride. Just when it seems that Frosty is on the verge of happiness, the nefarious villain, Jack Frost, becomes jealous of Frosty's good fortune and threatens to steal his hat--the magical hat that gives Frosty and his newly found bride life. Andy Griffith narrates this entertaining sequel to the original. Produced and directed by imagineers Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin, FROSTY'S WINTER WONDERLAND is just as fun as its predecessor. The movie showcases the filmmakers' ingenuity and ability to create a captivating fairy tale for all ages.

Frosty the Snowman [DVD]
Jimmy Durante narrates this classic tale about a snowman who is brought to life by magic. Karen (June Foray) is a lonely girl. Neglected by her parents, she spends her time building snowmen. One day, she discovers a mysterious hat rumored to be the property of an evil magician. Karen wishfully bestows the snowman with the hat and to her delight, Frosty (Jackie Vernon) magically comes to life. Frosty and Karen quickly become the best of friends, and there seems to be no end in sight to their good times--until the sun threatens to melt Frosty. Accompanied by Karen, he sets out for the cool refrigeration of the North Pole, but when the evil magician learns of their plans, he's hot on their trail. Once again Arthur Rankin and Jules Bass deliver yet another heartwarming holiday Christmas tale. Originally aired in 1969, FROSTY THE SNOWMAN has been rerun on network television ever since. Film icon Durante lends appropriately cool vocals as the storyteller of the much-loved movie, which is based on the popular song of the same name.

Return of the King
Continuing the story they began in 1978's THE HOBBIT, directors Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin present THE RETURN OF THE KING, the close to J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series. As hobbits Frodo and Samwise head to Mount Doom to destroy the evil ring that brings plague to the land, they must overcome a number of obstacles--orcs, ring wraiths, the deadly Gollum, and the madness of the ring itself--while Gandalf and Aragon head an epic battle against the evil forces that threaten to destroy all of Middle-earth. THE RETURN OF THE KING ends the cycle started in THE HOBBIT and continued in Ralph Bakshi's THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Viewers get to see an aged Bilbo Baggins contentedly smoking his pipe and listening to his nephew Frodo's tales. Orson Bean and John Huston reprise their roles as Bilbo and Gandalf. (Bean also lends his voice to Frodo.) And as with THE HOBBIT, there's plenty of thrilling action, masterfully painted backgrounds, and catchy Glenn Yarbrough songs.

Jack Frost (Deluxe Edition) [DVD]
A groundhog (Buddy Hackett) narrates this stop-motion animation masterpiece about the gift of love and the joy of being generous to others. Jack Frost (Robert Morse), the darkhearted spirit of winter, has fallen in love with a beautiful maid, Elisa (Debra Clinger). Wishing to win her over, Jack takes the form of a human and befriends Elisa and her family. Working as a tailor, Jack becomes a regular part of his community, and just when he thinks he's reaching Elisa, he learns that she is already engaged to marry the noble knight Sir Danny (Larry Storch). However, before Jack can lament the loss of Elisa, the evil King Kubla Kraus (Paul Frees) comes along and snatches her up, locking her away in his castle. When Elisa refuses to marry Kraus and pledges her allegiance to Sir Danny, the all-powerful Kraus vows to destroy the village. Jack realizes that he is the only one powerful enough to stop the evil king, but he can only stage such a rescue if he returns to his immortal winter form. Directors Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin return with another masterpiece. Jack Frost features all the elements Rankin and Bass fans have come to love--a fairy-tale story line, catchy songs, and breathtaking animation. Featuring the pop standard "Me and My Shadow" and the jibing voice of Hackett, JACK FROST is anything but cold.
