RANKIN/BASS' THE ENCHANTED WORLD OF DANNY KAYE: THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES (1972)

 I re-watched RANKIN/BASS' THE ENCHANTED WORLD OF DANNY KAYE:  THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES and I must say the ANIMAGIC is Excellent as is Danny Kaye's performance.  Arthur Rankin was great friends with Danny and this was going to launch a series.  There is a wonderful original documentary on the DVD made by ARTHUR RANKIN and JULES BASS in 1972 with behind the scenes footage of the Animators in the studio and narrated by Danny and Arthur.  It also features Jack Davis' artwork for the series.
