Unaware of Gulliver lying on the beach, King Little arranges for the marriage of his daughter, Princess Glory (Jessica Dragonette), to Prince David (Lanny Ross), the son of neighboring King Bombo. Angered when King Little refuses to agree on the wedding song, Bombo declares war just as the villagers discover the giant Gulliver. > > Genre: Kids & Family, Fantasy, Animation > > Original Language: English > > Director: Dave Fleischer > > Producer: Max Fleischer > > Release Date (Theaters): Dec 22, 1939 Original > > Release Date (Streaming): Jun 18, 2002 > > Runtime: 1h 14m > > Distributor: Paramount Pictures > > Sound Mix: Stereo ## Details - [libremdb](https://farside.link/libremdb/title/tt0031397 "libremdb: A free & open source IMDb front-end") ／ [IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031397 "Internet Movie Database") - <https://letterboxd.com/film/gullivers-travels/> - <https://trakt.tv/movies/gulliver-s-travels-1939> ## Restored details > Fleischer Classics featuring Gulliver's Travels is presented on Blu-ray by Thunderbean Animation with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.33:1 (the release is hard matted with rounded corners, reproducing its original theatrical exhibition). Thunderbean is the brainchild of Steve Stanchfield, who did a Kickstarter-esque campaign to fund this restoration, which he painstakingly undertook without a huge staff (the credits list three total people handling digital cleanup, restoration and editing, with one more person listed as the telecine operator). This transfer was srouced from a variety of 35mm elements, though Stanchfield mentions in his interesting liner notes that the bulk of the release stems from a 1957 print, though this print evidently had replacement footage from another print to replace damaged sections. Four other prints were utilized for various segments as well. The results here are quite beautiful, though there are some minor though noticeable color space variations as well as density issues that occasionally crop up. However, Stanchfield is to be roundly applauded for having attempted to clean up his source elements without digitally tweaking things to the point that they no longer resemble film (we have another Max Fleischer's Gulliver's Travels release if we want to go that lamentable route). While some may wish for a brighter overall ambience, the organic look of this transfer is probably its strongest asset, aided by a largely accurate accounting of lush Technicolor hues (the blues are especially impressive). The image retains the painterly depth that was the Fleischers' hallmark. There are still manifold scratches and minor imperfections that can be seen, but this is truly a remarkable achievement by a "sole proprietor" that should put any number of niche labels on notice as to what someone who really cares about what they're doing can offer to classic film aficionados. While a transfer from an interpositive or negative would have probably culled more pleasing results, the fact that this looks as wonderful as it does sourced from a "mere" print (or set of prints) is an astounding accomplishment. <https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Fleischer-Classics-Featuring-Gullivers-Travels-Blu-ray/82468/#Review> ## About Jessica Dragonette - <http://archive.today/rYi6Z> - <https://web.archive.org/web/20230402100723/http://jessicadragonette.com/> - <http://jessicadragonette.com/>
