ALADDIN AND HIS WONDERFUL LAMP is one of the most enjoyable of episodes from the fabulous FAERIE TALE THEATRE series. Robert Carradine, Valerie Bertinelli, James Earl Jones and Leonard Nimoy lead the strong cast.
Aladdin is played by the appealing Robert Carradine, who offers a fine performance as the resourceful young hero who is thrown into a world of wonder, danger and romance after discovering a lamp which contains a Genie (James Earl Jones) who will grant his every wish. Unfortunately, a scheming magician (Leonard Nimoy) also knows about the magical lamp and will stop at nothing to get it...
Valerie Bertinelli is luminous as the beautiful Princess Sabrina who steals Aladdin's heart. She was nominated for several awards for her performance here. James Earl Jones is an amazing Genie; big and boistrous and very funny!
Directed by Tim Burton, ALADDIN comes to life with sparkling sets and vivid costumes. One of the best. Co-starring Rae Allen as Aladdin's mother and Ray Sharkey as the Grand Vizier.
