Nothing wrong with it. It's just that this is not really the most active forum around.

Sure, IMDB is the home of teh trolls and land of teh retarded but there are some knowledgeable people 'round there that make it a sport to find/name 'that movie'. Everytime I asked a movie's title there I got the right answer within a day, most of the time within a few minutes. I was able to give better descriptions though.

If there is one thing I shall never do it's post on the IMDb boards. I've read enough of the boards to know that, as you say, 90% of those who post there are retarded way past the point of reasonability. People like that just piss me off, so I find it better to avoid them altogether, lest I get sucked into their evil web of retardation.

Sure, some posters might be alright, but I just don't see how it's worth the suffering of having to swim through the ocean of imbeciles to get to them.

Mine:

I think it was a short, very Tim Burton-esque (but not very light-hearted). Puppets. I think it was about a wig maker.

That's all I can remember right now.

Yes. That's it! Thank you.

It came on television a few years ago completely out of the blue. It gave the world a whole new atmosphere for 15 minutes.

And that's got to be one of the strangest endings ever.

That is something in par with the early Burton's. Brannagh's voice talent adds upto to the atmosphere.

Greetings

I have been looking for the name to this film for a very long time:

It is of eastern european origin I believe.
A far out fantasy type.
There is no dialogue as far as I remember.
It involved a princess/maiden and some sort of evil demon elvin king type person.
The sets were of these vast wilderness's of snow and huge rock gems, the sets were incredible as I remember.
I think the film was made around the late 50's to early 60's or could have been a lot earlier, my memory is very vague on that.

I really need to see this film again so if you can name this it would be most appreciated.
