                  A special, but slightly cheesy, childhood memory!
                  This is a beautifully animated film that I haven't seen for over 15 years as my little brother taped over it! I remember it was very funny and colourful, some of it was quite psychedelic and hazily dreamlike. There was a 70s style soundtrack that made me cringe a bit- even back then- but secretly I loved the songs! I remember a Siberian gnome who came to attend the wedding (...and it's a fa-la-la-la sing-a- long wedding day...) who was very funny, got drunk a lot and fell about. The disgusting enemies, the trolls, were brilliant characters- hated everything, even each other- and I remember one troll looking into her cracked up mirror, tying her hair back with a worm and saying in a haggish voice, "just beautifying myself". Loved it- want it- where can I get it!? If anyone has a copy for sale or knows of where I can get it please let me know, Thankyou.
