As a former puppeteer I just adore this clip. I am a musician from Australia wondering if i can use some of it for an arty little music video clip about recovering from childhood trauma. I have emailed AV geeks but haven't heard back for some time. Thanks so much AV geeks and Prelinger for preserving these absolute gems.

Great animated piece telling of Red Riding Hood and her story. The story here has been slightly changed, but I mean, name an instance where the story is absolutely the same? Anyways. Riding Hood cant part with her outer accessories, is soon dispatched to grandma's house, stops to pick flowers, gets accosted by the wolf (who is polite and lets her go!) and then meets up with her again at Grandma's house. Grandmas has retreated hastily to, yes, get the huntsman to kill the wolf! Harryhausen's animation here is gorgeous, and a great testement to his work. A MUST SEE on this site!
