Beauties, beasts and beanstalk fans, welcome to the tale of tales. This Showdown celebrates the best fairytales, from across the globe, ever put to film. From George MacDonald to Ghibli, Hans Christian Andersen to Christian Petzold, list the ten movies that most cleverly twist the genre knife into the heart of the fables, or most faithfully sprinkle the stardust on screen. It’s time to put on your red shoes and go into the woods. Don’t forget your walnuts (and keep an eye out for Bob Wolverton).
