Recently TCM showed Bros. Grimm in a widescreen transfer that had alll 3 camera angles visible. It was great! Write them and request a rebroadcast and then get your DVD Recorders ready!

I have loved this movie since I saw it in the 1960s. A few years ago, I was flipping through the dial and came across a wide screen version that had introductory material about the Prussian War. It was shown on Turner Classic Movies. I would love to have a DVD copy of this version. Anyone know where I can find it? May 15, 2008

I saw this movie when it first came out. I was seven years old at the time. I remember that I thought it was great movie. Of course, at that age, I had total suspension of disbelief. I wanted to have one of those capes that turns you invisible. I was also terrified by the dragon in "The Singing Bone." I was in real distress for the Buddy Hackett and Terry Thomas characters as they tried to avoid the dragon. The ending of that story made me sad.

I did see this movie once again on television as an adult. I laughed at how I had been totally affected by it as a seven-year-old.

I've signed up to be notified if and when this is released to DVD. I hope they do it justice when they do release it. November 18, 2007

This is a Wonderful Movie. It is excellent story telling. It is a treasure, showing a persons courage to hold on to a dream, and the struggle that he, his brother and his family go thru to keep that dream.unfortunately there is no swearing or sex or drugs, no nudity either, just a Good Story! What a concept!!! It was one of 7 movies made in PanaVision, this is where 3 cameras are side by side filming a movie. May 7, 2006
