Little Red Riding Hood


A wolf with wicked dress sense is the star of this entertaining and distinctive take on the traditional fairy tale. This stop-motion film is an early work by talented and humorous animator Paul Berry (1961-2001). After studying at Wolverhampton Polytechnic, Berry joined the Cosgrove Hall animation studio in Manchester. In 1991 he was Oscar nominated for his short horror film 'The Sandman'.
