O Rei dos Elfos

Le Roi des Aulnes, aka The Erl-King, is an early piece of French cinema about a father on horseback with his son riding through the forest to get the ailing child to a doctor. Apparently in delirious, the boy starts seeing fantastical images - fairies, magical toads and the Erl-King - which his father explains away as clouds, the wind and just nature around them. Well, all the visions are portends - and I'll stop there.

The movie is ok if obviously rather dated having come out in 1931. Yet, even for that time, this type of mythical film making has been done so much better. So, unless you love ancient French cinema, you should pass on this film.
