Fun Facts:
Harryhausen made dynamation intentionally less-than-realistic:
“There's a strange quality in stop-motion photography, like in
Kind Kong (1933), that adds to the fantasy. If you make things too
real, sometimes you bring it down to the mundane.”
- Ray Harryhausen
Despite never winning an award for his actual films, Harryhausen
was presented with the Gordon E. Sawyer Award for Lifetime
Achievement at the 1992 Academy Awards.
