Obscure Movie: The Last Unicorn



This week's movie is an oldie but a goodie! The Last Unicorn came out in 1982 and features the voices of Mia Farrow, Christopher Lee, Jeff Bridges, Angela Lansbury and the music of America.  The movie follows the story of a unicorn who finds out she is the last of her kind, so she sets off to King Haggard's kingdom to find the Red Bull who supposedly led all the other unicorns away.  This movie is so funny and also a bit scary at some times, at least when you are 10 years old and watching it. She encounters a magician, an old witch, a story-telling butterfly, talking cat, crazy skeleton and many more interesting characters.

This is definitely one of my favorite movies, even if it is a bit odd. But I think that is precisely the reason I like it so much.  So have you seen it?!  If not, do it!

    Totally forgot about this movie! My sister was obsessed with unicorns so of course this was one of her favorites. Oh, the good old cartoon movies. Great reminder :)
