Out of the random nowhere, we watched The Last Unicorn (1982) as a family last week. It's an animated film based on a book of the same title. The animation was done by the Japanese animation studio Topcraft, which one may recognize (I did visually) from the 1977 The Hobbit adaptation. I found the voice acting mostly off somehow (even Jeff Bridges), and so was surprised to such well known names numbered among the cast. However, one stands out to write home (online?) about. Hearing the first lines from Christopher Lee as the decrepit King Haggard was chilling, after having spent so many hours with him as the oddly familiar role of Saruman through the years.
