THE FIR TREE

by Hans Christian Andersen ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 1, 1990

Andersen's bleak tale of a wished-away life becomes no less bitter in Watts's oddly cheerful palette and delicately lined paintings. This adaptation retains the personality of the original: the tree's yearning is deeply felt; the ending appropriately melancholy.
