83 mins, Czechoslovakia
Czech visual effects genius Karel Zeman blends live-action, miniatures, paintings, and stop-motion, in this rollicking marine adventure drawn from the novels of Jules Verne. Zeman’s Georges Méliès-esque visual effects conjure a proto-steampunk world that somehow replicates the look of 19th-century line engravings and inspired Terry Gilliam.
“… a genuine cinematic marvel, a masterpiece of ingenious visual realization in which the screen is transformed into a living, breathing Victorian picturebook.” James Kendrick, qnetwork.com
