Johnny Corncob

Hungary   anime

Exceptional film. Impressionistic treatment of an historical poem taken from a folk legend.

Very daring, abstract imagery...a bit off-putting at first but the remarkable fluidity of the image transitions got my attention. I ended up seeing this as a major work of creative imagination. From 1973.

This should be better known.
