FEARNOT.

FEARNOT
John Hurt reprises his
role as the Storyteller in
this saga of a young
boy's quest to encounter
fear—something he's
never experienced.
That youngster, who's
fittingly named Fearnot
(Reece Dinsdale), is a good-for-nothing in the
eyes of his father (Peter Jonfield). Fed up, the fa-
ther sends his son "off into the world with nothing
to guide him but a bag of shillings, a fiddle and a
fool's errand": to learn the meaning of fear.
On his journey Fearnot takes up with a tinker
(Willie Ross) who offers—for a price—to teach
him how to shudder in fear. But after a close en-
counter with a hideous
swamp monster, and the
monster's temptress
daughters, Fearnot turns
the tables by mesmeriz-
ing the creatures with his
fiddle music.
Finally, at a forbidding
castle, Fearnot is presented with a crucial test by
an unearthly half-man (Frederick Warder). But it
is not until he returns home to his sweetheart
Lidia (Gabrielle Anwar) that the elusive emotion
finally surfaces
Additional Cast Lidia's Father: James
