[Adventures of Prince Achmed]
Clever animation using cardboard silhouettes to tell stories from the Arabian Nights.
Although a limited cartoon form for wide shots and action, it works brilliantly for close-ups and the many love scenes here.
The intimist, cameo-brooch nature of the style is well-rendered by Lotte Reiniger’s team, who took three years to complete the work - especially in the more romantic scenes.
