Sergei Prokofiev's fanciful musical tale, Peter and the Wolf, is given new life in this innovative animated interpretation. Conceived and directed by award-winning animator Suzie Templeton, this modern-day "Peter & the Wolf" uses stop-frame model animation, puppets and digital photography to re-tell the enduring classic, and features the Philharmonia Orchestra under the direction of Mark Stephenson performing Prokofiev's beloved score.
This video clip takes you behind-the-scenes to check out the making of Peter with director Suzie Templeton. GREAT PERFORMANCES is produced for PBS by Thirteen/WNET New York. For more information, visit http://www.pbs.org/gperf

I thought this was TERRIBLE!!!
C'mon... a gun-toting Grandpa? The bird pooping on the cat? The 'thug' kid-hunter 'bullying' Peter into a dumpster in the begiining??? Prokofiev must be rolling in his grave right now. The animation and effect were 'cool'... too bad the producer missed the entire point of this story AND their inte

I loved the film, the setting, the animation, and of course the story and the music. What I didn't like was the maniacal Peter. He has issues.

Suzie Templeton did ... ( 3 months ago by dikkelul5bier)

Suzie Templeton did something amazing. Instead of simply rerunning the classic, she injected dark humor and wrote characters full of(human)flaws. I loved it. It took my favorite fairy tale to a new level.

What would you call ... ( 2 months ago by HamishtheDog1)

What would you call this type of animation? I used to love watching similar animations that where in Gaelic and German when I was young. They were mainly fairytales. Does anyone know what I mean? And does anyone know where I could find them? I'd love to see them again.
