One of the great figures of world literature, Danish author Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) is renowned for his children's tales, yet comparatively little is known of his extraordinary rise from poverty to preeminence. Hallmark Entertainment presents the story behind the storyteller, one as full of pathos as Andersen himself. In his film debut, Kieran Bew is remarkable as Andersen, an impoverished child who, at age 15, runs away to Copenhagen. Destitute, he's befriended by a wealthy benefactor, Jonas Collin (James Fox), who offers him shelter, education, and, ultimately, an audience with a publisher. As the biography unfolds, so does Andersen's brilliant imagination. The film deftly weaves snippets of his fairy tales ("The Snow Queen," "The Little Mermaid") into the real-life scenes of a man whose rise to fame is tangled with the strains of success and a tendency to believe his own fiction. An inventive script and strong ensemble cast make this a cinematic standout. (Ages 8 and older) --Lynn Gibson

Customer Reviews of Hans Christian Andersen - My Life as a Fairytale

great film
This version of Hans Christian Andersen is really great. Wonderful costumes scenery and good actors and also scenery and effects. Its version for children and grownups .

Magically produced and Charmingly Acted
Kieren Bew and Emily Hamilton bring most of the emotional and acting highs to this delightful production.

The art direction and styling of this splendrous melding of Hans Christian Andersen and his memorable stories are unforgettable.

Bew brings a delightfully childlike and charmingly bubbly prescence that disarms one and allows us into the mind and true story of one of history's delightful creations.

I recommend this very highly. To those who cherish Andersen and those have not been spoiled by this present world of in-your-face theatrics and slam-bang storytelling. All is not happy in this tale. But that's life...as Hans readily admits.

The pace is free and easy. Buy it, make yourself a cup of tea and sit back. Enjoy.

this film may have you comit suicide.
This film is horribly depressing. The main actor plays his character like a raving lunatic and , if he acted this way in public, would have been locked up.
I was hoping this DVD would be a series of shorts, like arabian nights, or even the 10th kingdom, but no. Instead it was a thinly disguised biography of han's christian anderson. In fact the acting of the main character is so bad, you do not even want to see the fairy tales. They too are gloomy and depressive.
Skip this one, and if you must get a hall mark faerie tale try the following:
10th Kingdom
Arabian nights
The Snow Queen
Dinotopia
Jack and the Bean Stalk the true story
Merlin

In that order.
