Featured review
This film/feature length music video before the days of music videos is a defiant gem! The music and lyrics, written & performed by disco producer/artist Alec R. Costandinos (Of "Romeo & Juliet", "Thank God It's Friday" & "I Found Love Now That I Found You" fame) fit every image in this great film. They are several short stories in great Japanese animation told about Greek myths..all with a point behind them to make you think. I would say this is a great film for the wide minded ages 13 - Adult. The narration helps along the story with the music. To give a good comparing, it's kinda like how Pink Floyd's "The Wall" tells its story through the music and video. This is a must have for any Alec R Costandinos fan or any Japanese animation collector. Unfortunately, like every other decent piece of film or music, the film and its album that went with it are long out of print. Used VHS copies can be found around the net sometimes as well as vinyl copies of the album.
