| Alakazam the Great |
This early 1960s animated musical based on Osamu Tezuka's
manga Saiyu-Ki (itself based on
Tales from the East) surprisingly benefits from Les Baxter songs sung by Frankie Avalon.
It's
Beach Blanket Bingo meets
Monkey - a cocktail perfectly matching Tezuka's own heady mix-and-match narratives.
Sterling Holloway (the voice of
Winnie the Pooh) narrates. Australian premiere.
