Rating: 3.5/4 --
The Adventures of Prince Achmed deserves to be a landmark. And it would be if it were better known.

Combustible Celluloid
The images, most of them gorgeously detailed silhouettes, are dazzling.

San Francisco Chronicle
It impresses for its exquisite craftmanship, balletic movement, expressive romanticism and moments of potent sensuousness and poetry.

Time Out
Beautiful as it all is, considerable dedication is required to sit through an hour of monotone, flat silhouette animation. It's rewarding -- but the reward is hard earned.

Antagony & Ecstasy
Even with the knowledge that the figures are made from simple pieces of cards and tricks of light, there is a magical splendour to her animations.

Product Description:
Considered by many to be the first full-length animated film, the story of Lotte Reiniger's mesmerizing work is taken from THE ARABIAN NIGHTS. A young prince embarks on a series of great adventures, including uniting with Aladdin and the Witch of the Fiery Mountains to save a beautiful princess. Produced in Germany this color-tinted film utilizes laboriously cut out silhouettes to tell its story.
