Salome's Dance
"This is aa very funny little film as a little girl, in her own voice, tells the story of John the Baptist becoming the victim of Herod and Salome. She is driven to keep going, telling about John's beheading to satisfy a courtesan. Well done with some striking line drawings for characters...."
