We've all heard about how the title character fell into a twenty-year sleep, and found the world totally different when he awoke. I wish to assert that there seems to be a connection to "The Shining", as both have the theme that things return, but not necessarily in the same form (needless to say, it was more subtle and more horrific in the latter).

But even ignoring that, this version of "Rip Van Winkle" is very well done, as can be expected from Will Vinton. I will say that the scene in the forest might be a little bit intense for young children, but otherwise, the whole thing works very well. Definitely worth seeing. Because here we all are.

This short (actually close to 30 minutes in length) was nominated for an Academy Award and deserved to be. The attention to detail is high, which is typical of a Will Vinton project. Narrated by Will Geer (a perfect choce, by the way), the story is adapted rather loosely in spots, but it's a marvelous piece of work and I'm glad it's apparently still in-print. A worthy effort well worth seeing. Most recommended.
