非常精美的一部舞台电影，布景精美又宏大，黑白不仅完美掩饰了当时的特效技术也给电影打了非常多的高光；妖后像银线一般的发丝跟精灵舞动的身躯；淘气的黑妖王，滑稽的追爱男女以及詹姆斯卡格尼的驴头；一切就是一场梦啊！
3.5星。包含序幕及退场音乐，舞台剧式的电影，蠢萌的角色，简单的故事构架。参加婚礼庆典节目的手工艺人好眼熟，原来演了《热情似火》！还有两男争一女的奥利维娅·德哈维兰。
看到精灵的时候看不下去了
电影是改编的书，所以整体故事情节是很熟悉的，早期的特效并没有我以为中的格格不入，相反看着挺美的，虽然有些地方很魔性。所以电影的好坏与技术的关系并不大。
做美术鉴赏看的片子。故事很熟悉，黑白画面和早期特效看着其实也挺美的，所以电影的好坏其实真的不看技术和特效。
哇哦！十分震撼
上世纪三十年代的特效已经很不错了。
第八届奥斯卡金像奖最佳影片提名
有的画面真的太魔性了
三十年代的特效我看着迷之顺眼 喜欢blingbling的小仙女们～

虽然是80多年前的电影了，但看起来并没有什么不舒服的地方。有些东西果然很技术是无关的，即使是黑白电影柔光闪光，森林里那段也没给人以五毛特效的感觉，果然演员台词和配乐才更重要些吧。不过Puck笑起来真的很魔性。
There are a number of problems with this production of Shakespeare's classic comedy, but overall, it is a joy to watch.
三十年代的特效感觉其实挺美的，不过有些画面实在太魔性了。。。。
