Ray Harryhausen
The wonderful and frightening world of Ray Harryhausen.
With Francine Stock
June 29th is the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ray Harryhausen, the special effects supremo who gave us a seven headed hydra, a a sword fighting skeleton and a lizard from Venus in such classics as Jason And The Argonauts, The Seventh Voyage Of Sinbad and 20 Million Miles To Earth. To celebrate the anniversary, Francine remembers the time she visited Ray in his London home and heard how he did all the effects himself, moving his fabulous beasts one painstaking step at a time.
