Dinosaurs and Dragons

Recommended for age 5 and older. Since dragons never existed and dinosaurs are extinct, only films can bring them to life. This program includes Gertie the Dinosaur, the coy and mischievous creation of early animator Winsor McCay; Dinosaur and Dragoncastle, which animate both their subjects in clay; an episode from The Lost World featuring dinosaurs made by special effects artist Willis O'Brien (creator of King Kong); plus Dragon Stew, about a clever dragon, and Dragon Over the Hill, about a friendly dragon.
