El cuentacuentos
"The Storyteller", one of the programs that brightened my afternoon children's functioning (such as "Dark Crystal") are marked by the hand puppet Jim Henson. do not deny that there may be a nostalgic strain ingredient in the memory I have of programs like this, "Frankenstein's Aunt", "The imaginary planet" or own "crystal ball" and now, when Few traces remain of this that so precarious that is innocence (if we have any), we can find some faults. But I can not help but compare the memory of those evenings television with kids in now without thinking that we were fortunate.
The great John Hurt, accompanied by a talking dog, served as master of ceremonies and introduced these stories taken mainly from the folklore of the wandering giant walking torsos, griffins, grotesque children hedgehog or personifications of death memory as a kind of cross between Bengt Ekerot in "The Seventh Seal" and Anna Varney. All this without avoiding the cruel let these stories, unlike what happens in adaptations of sugar cube that we have tended to sell, and treated with an atmosphere that sometimes episodes can fellowship with films like "The Company of Wolves" or "Snow White".
Today, storytelling is no longer reserved for the best place by the fire, and prayed the opening credits of the series, but in most cases lives badly curled in a corner waiting for you to throw leftovers.
