The Pari Banou first scene...


is one of the most beautiful scene I've ever experienced in animation movie, if not the best scene in movie ever.

The scene where she and her lady-in-waitings bathe, with blue color, and the music... God, the music is the best thing... I don't know if they use the same music back then or they compose a new one, but it was an exciting experience.

No matter how much you hate this movie, no matter how boring it is, you should see that scene.

I agree, the whole movie was completely beautiful and mesmerizing. This is the type of movie I'll just put in and fall asleep to.

Yes that scene sticks out in my mind also, very iconic.

Supposedly, it's the music originally scored in 1926.

I thought the most beautiful scene was the red lit one where Achmed has rescued Peri Banu from the Chinese emperor; they kiss and then lie on a bed/couch. Surrounding the bed are Chinese lanterns and the design for them and the bed are the most exquisite I've ever seen.

My other favourite scene is towards the end when the witch is calling the good spirits from the lamp. It's a blue lit scene with white and yellow lights for the spirits. The colour and movement in that scene were gorgeous.

Movement ends, intent continues;
Intent ends, spirit continues
