Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer 1964



Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer is another classic Rankin/Bass cartoon. It tells the story of Rudolph, a little reindeer, that is born with a shiny red nose that glows in the dark. All the other reindeer laugh at him so he runs away with Hermie, an elf who actually wants to be a dentist. After many adventures they return to Christmas Town to learn that there may be a place for them after all. The narrator in this story is a snowman who looks exactly like Burl Ives, who voices the snowman. Here is a clip of him singing the song the story is based off of.
