My review was written in February 1984 after watching a CBS/Fox video cassette.
This is Monty Pythonite Eric Idle's hilarious "The Tale of the Frog Prince", a droll spoof of traditonal storytelling that features very convincing miniaturization effects using Ulimatte and effects by Knott Ltd.
Amidst very effective wordplay by writer-director-narrator Idle, Robin Williams excells in heavy makeup as the froggie, even launching into a night club act when he entertains at the king's party. Using an arch manner reminicent of early 1930s Katharine Hepburn or Bette Davis, co-star Teri Garr is a treat as the haughty princess whose contrariness extends to her favoring a "Save the Dragons" campaign. Rene Auberjonois, Candy Clark, Roberta Maxwell and Donovan Scott are solid in support.
