Date Sold 10/2/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1955 (from the first release of this movie in Germany) Vintage German Film Program (measures 7 1/4" x 10 1/2"; 4 pages) (Learn More) Hansel and Gretel, the 1954 John Paul children's puppet fantasy musical ("The miracle that happens only once to the very young ...at heart"; "See... the fabulous 'Kinemins'... Life-like little people they walk, they dance, they sing... They almost breathe!"; "Full Length Feature Musical Fantasy in FAIRYLAND COLOR"; "Winner Parents' Medal Movie of the Month"; using electronically controlled figures called "Kinemins", capable of every natural movement of the human body and a variety of expressions far surpassing the range of the live actors) featuring the voices of Anna Russell, Mildred Dunnock, Frank Rogier, Delbert Anderson, and Constance Brigham. Note that the producers of this movie used deception in their advertising, and it appears that the deception was necessary to get financing for the movie! They pretended that they had some "revolutionary new method" of creating "electronically controlled figures", which they called "Kinemins" that would far surpass any previous form of animation (and since they told their backers this, they had to go ahead and put it on their advertising). In actuality, the figures were simple puppets, and the movie was made with stop-motion (but it was not claymation, for the figures were solid armature puppets, and apparently the only thing "new" about this was that the puppets were held in place with some sort of strong magnets in between each shot!) The entire movie was shot in a building in New York City, but the producers gave the false idea that it was created in Europe, so it would seem all the more fascinating!

Important Added Info: Note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 4-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and the interior two pages together). This way, you see the entire program, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image. But of course this means that the front cover appears in the top right of our image, but normally, the program would be folded down the center and you would view the cover by itself (and it will be sent folded as was originally intended). Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
