Jack and the Beanstalk: The Real Story (2001)


Everything you know about Jack and the Beanstalk is a lie! The giant was kind and loving and Jack was truly a thief and murderer killing the Giant when he tried to recover the treasures stolen from his kingdom. Since 1611 all the consequent Jacks have been paying the price for their ancestor’s treachery, dying before they reach their 40th birthday. Jack’s mother has in turn been cursed to live down through the centuries watching as one son after another dies. When the original Jack’s 15th great grandson learns of his forefather’s treachery he returns to the Giant Land in order to try to right the wrongs. Will he succeed in his quest? Only time will tell.
