Synopsis
The Bremen Town Musicians (Бременские музыканты, 1969) is a Soviet animated classic from Soyuzmultfilm you can watch online on iFILM. Director Inessa Kovalevskaya took the Brothers Grimm fairy tale and rebuilt it as a rock-tinged musical: Troubadour and his four animal companions — donkey, dog, cat, rooster — travel the road and sing songs that hit harder than anything you'd expect from a cartoon this short. Music by Gennady Gladkov, lyrics by Yuri Yentin, voices by Oleg Anofriyev.
Troubadour falls for a Princess. The King objects. The bandits complicate things. Twenty minutes on screen, and the songs don't leave your head for decades — which explains why this has been in rotation for over fifty years. Stream The Bremen Town Musicians (1969) online on iFILM.
