i first saw this back in the early 90 on uk tv and i do like it then but i miss the chance to tape it and many year pass but the film always stick with me and i lose hope of see it tv again and the main thing that stick with me be the end and the hole castle part really touch me and it easy to watch and have a great story and great music and the list go on and on and it ok me say how good it be but everyone will take there own best bit away with them once they have see it and yes the animation be top notch and beautiful to watch and it do show it age in a very few part but that have now become part of it beauty and i be so glad it have come out on dvd a it be one of my top 10 film of all time . buy it or rent it just see it and best viewing be at night alone with drink and food in reach so you do not have to stop the film . enjoy .
