I remember renting this movie before at my local blockbuster and it is by far the best adaptation of the Grimm Brothers tale and with music from the Opera itself and usually i watch this around Christmas time or something, plus Cloris Leachman is remarkable as the Witch compared to Margaret Hamilton's Wicked Witch of the West from the Wizard of Oz and David Warner is also brilliant as Hansel and Gretel's father and the songs from the Opera are outstanding, brilliant, amazing and this movie will make you laugh, it will make you cry and put a smile on your face to this classic Cannon-Fairy Tale movie.
