THE HAPPY PRINCE

This Oscar Wilde fairy tale is adapted and directed by the great Orson Welles.  He also narrates this melancholy story, which features Bing Crosby as the prince and Lurene Tuttle as the swallow.  The music is composed by one of the giants of film music, Bernard Herrmann, and is directed by Victor Young, another major musical figure from that era.
