Willow starting Val Kilmer and Warwick Davis
Willow is a delightful adventure fantasy written by George Lucas and directed by Ron Howard. It has all the standard elements of a children’s movie: magic, fairy folk (brownies actually), little people, a powerful witch queen and a dragon. The title role is played by Warwick Davis as a farmer who dabbles in magic. His small stature, wide-eyes, willful heart are all reminiscent of a child and make him an instantly lovable character. When Willow ventures on a mission to bring a hunted baby back to her people, he fearlessly takes on the task as her protector. (Great film for big brothers with a new baby sister).

Val Kilmer plays a rogue warrior Mad Martigan, he is the first tall person Willow encounters, but he hesitates in leaving the baby under his care. He doesn’t trust that she won’t be dumped off the first chance Mad Marigan gets to rid himself of the needy infant. The baby is pursued by the evil sorceress because it fulfills a prophecy about destroying her power and Mad Martigan is lacking in knowledge of basic infant care. Kilmer, forever the character actor is formidable in Willow.

Soon Mad Martigan, Willow and the baby are joined by a pair of brownies on their quest. The brownies are comic relief as the danger (possibly frightening to small children) mounts. Fighting a dragon and facing a murderous master sorceress with a sword and bag of party tricks is not exactly good odds. These pint sized sprites are catalysts to the movie’s subplot. Mad Martigan is accidentally given a love potion that makes him fall in love with the evil queen’s warrior daughter Sorsha, played by Joanne Whalley. (But this is a real love story because Val and Joanne met on set and were married soon after.)
