I'm 69 years old now. For years I wondered how to find this animation. When I was little in the mid to late 1950's, I saw this on early morning television and I remembered it really spooked me. Now I found it!
Thank you for posting this, I’ve been inspired by Prince Ahmed and Lotte Reiniger, since my teacher showed me the film last year. What a fascinating look into an expert and her craft.
The Adventures of Prince Achmed, often cited as the first feature film made entirely in stop motion. Kudos to the direction of Lotte Reiniger and everyone involved!
Where I live we have a tv channel 11 and 12. On Saturday night you don't know what they're going to show! Old horror movies, old comedys. It's an Access Channel.. They showed this and I enjoyed the Prince Achmed film! Sometimes the channel shows Psychedelic Tv weird visuals....
