Movie Description One of Hollywood's legendary visionaries, George Pal was a pioneer of stop-motion animation and an innovator in the science fiction and fantasy genres. Collected here are three programs focusing on the man behind classics like WAR OF THE WORLDS and THE TIME MACHINE, and on the influence his work had on the film industry. FANTASY FILMS OF GEORGE PAL is a documentary exploring Pal's life and career, featuring rare interviews with Pal himself as well as with notable contemporaries like Ray Bradbury, Charlton Heston, and Janet Leigh. THE PUPPETOON MOVIE is hosted by lovable animated characters Gumby and Pokey and also includes many of Pal's other imaginative stop-motion creations. Finally, THE GREAT RUPERT was Pal's first full-length movie, a warm and creative romp about a clever squirrel who comes to the aid of a needy vaudeville family.
