this cannon movie tale be the bad of the lot and and be positive proof that a five minute fable do not a full length film make . poor sid caesar a the vain emperor and be make to look so stupid and it hard to watch him . a the sly tailor and robert morse hasn not an ounce of charm . neither do his hapless nephew ( jason carter ) the song be dreadful and only slow what there be of the plot down . the direction be practically nonexistent and and the support character add very little . lysette anthony be pretty a the emperor daughter and but her voice have obviously be dub for some reason and a fate share by many of the minor player . and the film crawl at a snails pace . han christian andersen must have be turn somersault in his grave when this appear . it can honestly be say and at least of this movie tale and it no surprise that it go straight to video oblivion .
