simple but great story

Fantaghiro 3 is in my opinion a great story teaching us of power of love.

Fantaghiro character is beautiful and funny, even with not very favorable hair-do, she still looks great. Her love interest, Romulado, is not much in the movie but we get a great replacement for that in the person of Tarabas.

Nicholas Rogers is perfect as a dark prince,tormented between love and evil and he is in fact a great tragic character who gives up his ways for someone he can never have. It's very inspirational.

A special note should go Brigitte Nielsen who is hilarious in the role of Dark Witch. In my view, she overshadowed Ursulla Andrews as another witch.

I recommend that film. It is so much better than Fantaghiro 4, where Tarabas becomes a parody of himself and wears too much make-up.

The best part of the Cave of the Golden Rose series
monabassil21 November 2001
I loved all of the Cave of the Golden Rose series but the fourth part is my favorite because of the introduction of Tarabas' character.

My comment concerns all 4 films: beautiful, breathtaking photography, original and creative plot, excellent cast (especially Alessandra, Nicholas, and Bridget Nielson!), moving music, great script with parts that make you want to reach for that tissue box no matter how old you are, appealing soundtrack...etc.. But what is most striking is that, for once, it is the princess who journeys to save the prince, and NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!

Too bad The Cave of the Golden Rose didn't get the recognition it surely deserved. Maybe it's because it's not an american production. That said, the dubbing wasn't always good!

that's a great movies
Tarabbas30 January 1999
i've seen all the movies in The Cave of the Golden Rose and for me it was a great movies that i had ever seen. Even though Fantaghiro don't take Tarabas as her husband but she still look forward for Ramualdo to take her as a real love from the heart...really sad movie i think .And my love Tarabas change himself to be honoured by taking Princess Angelica as a great wife...everything will end with marriage....
