The Emperor's Nightingale

★5.3

Now...a breathless experience brought to the screen! ...exquisite music! ...enchanting color!

Adaptation of a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen, about an emperor who prefers the tinkling of a bejeweled mechanical bird to the song of a real nightingale. When the Emperor is near death, the nightingale's song restores his health.
