The Last Unicorn

ActionAdventureAnimationDramaFamilyFantasy93 min

After a riddle-speaking butterfly tells her she may be the last of her kind, a unicorn leaves the lilac wood to learn what happened to the others and why the monstrous Red Bull is tied to their disappearance. Mia Farrow is the unicorn, carrying the story’s calm sadness as the search widens beyond fairy-tale forests and into stranger territory. Along the way, Alan Arkin’s Schmendrick, a well-meaning but unreliable magician, becomes her companion, and the trail leads them toward the forbidding castle of King Haggard.
