Watched Willow (1988) by an author from letterboxd.com
The evil Queen Bavmorda hunts the newborn princess Elora Danan, a child prophesied to bring about her downfall. When the royal infant is found by Willow, a timid farmer and aspiring sorcerer, he's entrusted with delivering her from evil.

Being a child of the 80s, I have very fond memories of this but it turns out it’s also a very good film!

It’s full of excellent practical effects and stunt work and you’ve got to love those sets, knowing someone actually built them.

There’s some great lines, fun characters and arguably the cutest baby (actually babies) ever to grace the screen.

They just don’t make ‘em like this any more!

★★★★
