00:00A woodcutter lived in a forest in Germany with his two children.
00:10Sadly, the children's mother was dead.
00:13Their stepmother did not love them, and they were all going hungry.
00:19Listen to me, husband.
00:20Huh? Yes? What is it, my dear?
00:24I've been thinking, if we share our food with Hansel and Gretel,
00:27there just won't be enough for anyone.
00:30So we'll all die.
00:32What?
00:33That means we should keep all the food for ourselves.
00:38It makes sense.
00:40It makes sense?
00:42Have you gone batty?
00:44Here's what you should do.
00:45Take Hansel and Gretel deep into the woods,
00:49and leave them there.
00:51Give them each a crust of bread, but leave them there.
00:55Good idea, huh?
00:57That's a crazy idea.
00:58And I don't want you talking about it anymore.
01:02You're scaring the children.
01:05Now, I have to be gone a few days.
01:08And while I'm gone, I expect you, my dear wife,
01:13to be their mother,
01:15and see that nothing happens to them.
01:18Do you understand?
01:20Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
01:22Of course, dear.
01:25It still makes sense.
01:27Goodbye, Hansel.
01:29Goodbye, Gretel.
01:31Now, you be good children now,
01:33and I'll be back in two days.
01:36Bye-bye, Papa.
01:37We'll miss you.
01:37Hurry back.
01:38Leave us in the woods all night?
01:44She wouldn't dare.
01:46Remember, Gretel,
01:47be brave and keep your eyes open.
01:50I've got a plan.
01:56Here's some more pebbles, Hansel.
01:58This should be enough, huh?
02:00Uh-oh.
02:00Hey, you two.
02:02Come over here now.
02:04We're going for a little walk.
02:08The stepmother took Hansel and Gretel
02:10deep into the woods.
02:12All along the way,
02:14Hansel dropped a trail of white pebbles.
02:21Now, wait right here.
02:23I'm going to go chop some wood.
02:26Please, stepmother, don't leave us.
02:29You heard me.
02:30Stay there.
02:33She left us.
02:36I told you so.
02:38Now what?
02:39Be brave and keep your eyes open.
02:42I hate it when you say that.
02:45Look, the trail of pebbles we left behind.
02:48If we follow them,
02:49we'll find our way back home.
02:50Come on, let's go.
02:51How did you get back?
03:01Out you go.
03:03No, out.
03:04No, wait.
03:06Please don't send us into the forest without anything.
03:10Very well.
03:12Here's a crust of bread for you, Hansel,
03:18and a blanket for you, Gretel.
03:21Now let's go.
03:23Once again,
03:25the stepmother took Hansel and Gretel
03:27deep into the forest.
03:29Hansel had no more pebbles,
03:31so this time,
03:32he dropped bits of breadcrumbs
03:34to mark their way back home.
03:36Again,
03:37the stepmother left the children,
03:39and again,
03:40the children began retracing their way back home.
03:44But as they followed the trail of breadcrumbs...
03:47Hansel, look!
03:50Those birds are eating all the breadcrumbs!
03:52Shoo! Shoo! Get away! Shoo!
03:55Oh, Hansel, the breadcrumbs are all gone!
03:58Uh-oh.
03:59Now we're really lost.
04:02Hansel, I'm cold.
04:05It'll be dark soon.
04:07What now?
04:08I guess we'll have to wait through the night
04:10and try to find our way back in the morning.
04:17What's that?
04:26I think it's a wolf.
04:29Maybe it's a bear.
04:33Whatever it is, it's going away.
04:47Oh, my! Hansel, look!
04:59Wow! What is it?
05:00Oh, it's... it's... it's beautiful.
05:03Let's get a closer look.
05:08Oh, it looks like candy!
05:10I'm gonna try some.
05:11Me too!
05:12Yeah, I'm using gingerbread.
05:17Mmm, with candy in between.
05:20Mmm, yum!
05:21A whole house made out of gingerbread and candy.
05:24Oh!
05:27Huh?
05:29Well, hello, my little darlings.
05:34Welcome to my house.
05:37Who are you?
05:38Me, I'm just the old woman who lives in this gingerbread house.
05:43Come in, children.
05:44Come in.
05:45I have an especially sweet dinner waiting inside for you.
05:50We don't talk to strangers.
05:53Come on, Gretel.
05:54She seems nice.
05:56And I'm really hungry.
05:58That's right, child.
05:59And it's right over there.
06:01Everything you like to eat.
06:03Oh, wow!
06:04Cookies and strawberry pie!
06:06My favorites!
06:08Yippee!
06:09Hansel, don't!
06:14Hey!
06:15This is the cage!
06:16Open up!
06:17Let me out!
06:18You let him out!
06:20I may not see very well, but I know how to get what I want.
06:24And what I want is children's do!
06:27For the next few days, the children remained the prisoners of the witch
06:39while she fattened them for her stew.
06:42They had all they could eat, especially Hansel,
06:46because the witch liked to eat plump little boy's best of all.
06:50One night, Hansel couldn't sleep.
07:03Hansel, are you crying?
07:06No.
07:08Well, stop it.
07:09It makes me feel funny.
07:11You always said, be brave, remember?
07:13But there's nothing I can do.
07:17I'm in a cage.
07:22Then, I'll have to be brave for both of us.
07:31Gretel, come along now.
07:33You must help me prepare the oven so I can cook you.
07:36Um, so I can cook this big pot of porridge for you and Hansel.
07:43Uh, could you clean away that burnt crust way back in the oven?
07:51It's way in the back.
07:53Go on.
07:54Uh, I don't know how.
07:56Of course you do.
07:57Just climb in.
07:59How?
08:00Show me.
08:01Then I'll do it.
08:02Huh?
08:03You're a stupid girl, aren't you?
08:05Like this.
08:07You crawl in like this.
08:09Uh-huh.
08:12You're trying to trick me into the oven instead of you, huh?
08:16Well, you're the one going in the oven.
08:19No, no!
08:21No!
08:23Oh, children, Stu, my children, Stu.
08:26Nothing better than...
08:28Huh?
