by Napoleon Boz T here is no limit to the amount of ingenuity young movie makers will exert in their effort to produce a serious motion picture of commercial quality — especially when they have little or no money to spend — just lots of tender loving care and hard work. Wanda and Pete Appleton decided there weren’t enough children’s films being produced so in characteristic fashion, they decided to make one. Wanda explored old fairy tales until she found an idea that appealed to her and seemed to have the classic flair required to hold modern children spellbound. Sitting down at her typewriter, she set about adapting “Ballad of the Bleeding Heart” to the screen. Her husband Pete is an experienced cameraman and editor, (as is his wife) and he spent weeks searching for locations around Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley that would fit into the European locale required. Near Thousand Oaks, a Dutch style windmill was found, and nearby, herds of grazing sheep. An artists colony near Vermont furnished a Swiss Village, and Ports of Call art Long Beach supplied other town settings. The towering mountains near Mammoth, California and the beautiful frozen lakes that abound in the area were perfect for a magic mountain the script called for.
