Title: Hard to Find Classic
Review: I really had to hunt to find this video at a reasonable price. Luckily for me my hunt was a success and I am so pleased to own this classic movie with Helen Mirren.Two children Daniel and Grace, on the remote island of Scylla, off Britain, befriend this deaf "Birdman" hermit (Mr. Woodcock)-the last surviving person from the time when the narwhal whales came & were abused by the people of nearby Samson island, resulting in a curse. Set throughout World War I, it is a hard time for the island people as they struggle together to survive and lift the curse.The spectacular scenery of rolling water, sandy beaches, blue skies, and lush greenery is mesmerizing; the haunting music adds to the drama & is often reminiscent of the whales themselves. Adults and children alike will enjoy this film. In my library this is a must have.
