Synopsis

Adaptation of the Grimm fairy tale about a lad who is only 5 1/2 inches high, but when a couple of crooks try to take advantage of him, he stands tall and proves that his physical size has no bearing on his cleverness. The film won a Special Effects Oscar for its clever blend of animation, live action and puppets.
