| Description |
A beguiling, gloriously amoral masterpiece that is true to animals and humans without a moment's sentimentality. A fox cub is captured and taken home to be a pet for the forester's children. She's far brighter than the humans, kills the forester's chickens, escapes, finds a mate, has her own cubs but is eventually killed herself. In the final scene the forester dreams of the vixen. He realises the beauty and wonder of life and what he might have lost be the killing of the vixen whom he was semi in love with. |
