Naturally we are fans of 80's fantasy movies or in this case a movie that feels like an 80's fantasy..with Puppets! Introducing Man & Witch Here are some fun fantasy facts about the Man & Witch movie. 1. Several scenes in M & W were shot at Doune Castle, one of the main locations in Monty Python’s Holy Grail, our guest Valerie Charlton worked on Holy Grail. 2. Renato Casaro who made the poster for Never Ending Story also made the poster for M & W. 3.The puppet director on M & W was none other than the legendary Damien Farrell -who worked on The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, Baby Yoda and many other Henson Projects. Shohreh Aghdashloo stars in M & W, she also starred alongside Jennifer Connelly in House of Sand and Fog. Jennifer Connelly plays Sarah in Labyrinth!
