The Fabulous Baron Munchausen Blu-Ray

Visionary Czech director Karel Zeman is treasured by generations of filmmakers worldwide, from Terry Gilliam and Jan Svankmajer to Tim Burton and Wes Anderson. His pioneering combination of live-action and animation makes him, alongside his Western counterpart Ray Harryhausen, one of the great masters of 20th Century fantasy cinema. Zeman's wildly inventive and comic take on the surreal adventures of Baron Munchausen explodes on to the screen in a riot of colour, visual wit and poetic verve. A celebration of human imagination, this film is widely recognised as one of cinema's timeless classics.
