    A surreal fairytale featuring the world's first communist princess, a bizarre fish and a malevolent dwarf that haunted the nightmares of generations of children from the mid-'60s onwards, The Singing Ringing Tree is presented here in High Definition for the first time.
    To win the love of a beautiful but arrogant princess, a prince must find The Singing Ringing Tree. His quest leads him to a magical garden ruled by an evil dwarf, who allows the prince to take the tree on condition he wins the princess' love before sunset. If he fails, the prince will be transformed into a bear!

      It was made in the Fifties and I watched it in the Sixties in B&W on BBC UK.

      It had some dark qualities about it down to the represenrtation of the dwarf character and that of the bear....
      I think it had more of an impact to us as children watching BBC TV in the early 70s .because we do not share the tradition of dark and.mysterious folk tales in the way. that Germans Scandinavia and russsia do. .It was very advanced as a production for its period

    Me and the mrs saw this in a double bill with Tinderbox on a proper big cinema screen in the 1990s.
    Guess they were subtitled widescreen colour movie versions ?
    It's too long ago to remember which screen ratio.
    Singing Ringing Tree was mind blowing on black and white TVs when we were lttle kids in the 1960s.
    Though seemed a bit dull and slightly disappointing nostalgia in our 30s.
    Despite probably preparing with 4 or 5 pints of Stella before entering the cinema.
