Faerie Tale Theatre - The Snow Queen

Rating:
Summary: A touching performance by Gilbert
Review: FAERIE TALE THEATRE was one of my favourite things as a child, and I have tracked down many on video. THE SNOW QUEEN is one of my personal favourites.

Melissa Gilbert and Lance Kerwin play Gerda and Kay, who enter the frozen land of the Snow Queen (played beguilingly by the late Lee Remick) to learn some much-needed lessons about love and friendship.

Along the way, Gerda meets the Lady Of Summer (Lauren Hutton) and the Robber Girl (Linda Manz) who both try to come between Gerda and her search to find Kay.

Narrated wonderfully by Shelly Duvall (who also created and produced the series, even starring in a few of the tales), and the brilliant costumes and sets all combine to create a bewitching tale of love and friendship.
