The first teaser-trailer for this George Lucas production echoed an actual line of dialogue in it (or perhaps vice versa): "Forget all you know, or think you know." Which, when heard in the larger context, comes to sound rather like a plea than a piece of advice. Forget, for a start, all you learned in school or Sunday school, forget all other movies you've seen in your life, forget Moses and Jesus, forget Snow White and her Seven Dwarfs, forget Peter Pan and Tinker Bell, forget Gulliver and the Lilliputians, forget The Terror of Tiny Town, forget Ray Harryhausen and his stop-motion monsters, most especially forget Star Wars and its multiple spinoffs and ripoffs -- forget all that (and a little bit more), and then maybe Willow will almost seem like new, like wow, like nothing you've ever seen before. From that list of requirements the ideal viewer would seem to have to be someone under the age of five, and a pretty well sheltered someone at that. Warwick Davis, Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley, Jean Marsh; directed by Ron Howard. (1988) — Duncan Shepherd
