Fantasy & Reality combine to create this magikal tale of the unicorn! I first saw this movie when my family got our first VCR which was a Beta Machine, and have never forgotten it. I rented it every chance I got, and purchased finally when I found a place that carried it. This cartoon is one of the best I have ever seen. The characters, although animated, are so real and you can truly feel all of the emotions they have to contend with. Your heart goes out to Amalthea & Lier when they realize their paths were not meant to cross and they could not spend their lives together. This is definately a cartoon that children and adults combined can enjoy, it can create memories that families can share for a lifetime. I know this is a bit extreme, but this is one movie that I have never forgotten; and one I am not likely soon to forget. I highly recommend renting this, or buying it so you too can enjoy the magik that so many others have enjoyed since the film was released.
