My favorite version
I received a copy of this on VHS when I was just 4 years old and I think it's just beautiful. Being just a kid myself at the time, Culkin was the *perfect* prince, cause he was pint-sized and adorable. The dancers are a lot more theatrical than other versions, and the costume are gorgeous. I tried to watch the 1986 PNB version, and it just scares me. Even though it has deeper themes, everything seems so hokey.
Does anyone else share my opinion? The 1986 version seems to have a TON of die-hard fans on its board...
Goonies (and neomaxizoomdweebies) never say die!
