The NeverEnding Story is a beloved fantasy film released in 1984, directed by Wolfgang Petersen. Adapted from the German novel of the same name by Michael Ende, the movie became an instant classic and left a lasting impact on generations of viewers. Its magical storyline, captivating characters, and breathtaking visuals continue to enchant audiences to this day.

The film centers around a young boy named Bastian, played by Barret Oliver. Battling with the recent loss of his mother and facing relentless bullying at school, Bastian finds solace in a mysterious bookstore run by Mr. Coreander (Thomas Hill). Inside the store, Bastian discovers an ancient book called The NeverEnding Story. As he begins to read, he is transported into the enchanting and perilous world of Fantasia.

Fantasia, a surreal realm filled with mythical creatures and breathtaking landscapes, is being consumed by a foreboding force known as The Nothing. Atreyu, a young warrior on a quest to save Fantasia, is brought to life by Noah Hathaway. With his loyal horse, Artax, Atreyu embarks on a perilous journey to find a cure for Fantasia’s ailing ruler, the Childlike Empress (Tami Stronach).

As Bastian delves deeper into the book, he becomes an active participant in the story and realizes that he possesses the power to shape the outcome of this fantastical tale. Through his unwavering belief and imagination, Bastian becomes the key to saving Fantasia from its impending doom.

The NeverEnding Story boasts a talented ensemble cast that brings the magical characters of Fantasia to life. Joining Barret Oliver and Noah Hathaway, the film features exceptional performances from actors such as Patricia Hayes as Urgl, Sydney Bromley as Engywook, and Alan Oppenheimer lending his voice to the wise and kind-hearted Rock-Biter.

One of the most iconic characters in the film is Falkor, the Luckdragon, who provides unwavering support to Atreyu during his quest. Falkor is brought to life with stunning animatronics and puppetry, creating a character that is both majestic and endearing. The NeverEnding Story also gave birth to one of the most memorable villains in cinematic history: The Gmork, a malevolent wolf-like creature voiced by Alan Oppenheimer.

The film's visuals are nothing short of awe-inspiring. From the colorful landscapes of Fantasia to the treacherous Swamps of Sadness, each scene feels like a living painting. The intricate practical effects used to bring the inhabitants of Fantasia to life, combined with breathtaking matte paintings and impressive puppetry, create a truly immersive experience.

The NeverEnding Story is not just a film, but a timeless journey through the power of imagination. It explores themes of courage, friendship, and the resilience of the human spirit. Its central message, that belief in oneself can overcome any obstacle, resonates with viewers of all ages.

To this day, the film's theme song, composed by Giorgio Moroder and performed by Limahl, remains instantly recognizable. Its uplifting melody and inspiring lyrics perfectly encapsulate the spirit of The NeverEnding Story. You can play and download these sounds [here], allowing you to relive the magic at any time.

The NeverEnding Story is a film that defies its title, as its impact and legacy continue to grow with each passing year. Its timeless tale and unforgettable characters have secured it a special place in the hearts of fans worldwide.

All right! I'll do it!
And that one isn't?
And the more wishes you make...
And you, whoever you are...
Are you Morla, the Ancient One?
Are you still here? Didn't you hear me?
Artax!
Brave men discover they are really cowards.
But not until he's well.
But that's so far.
But we can't even wait for a racing snail.
But you can ask...
Call my name.
Come on, Artax.
Come on, old girl
Could the Ivory Tower still be standing?
Did you know the Empress is ill?
Die?
Don't let the sadness of the swamps get to you.
Don't start to doubt yourself. Be confident.
Don't you care?
Falkor!
First, there was no lake anymore.
For breakfast?
Get out of my light, wench.
Get them, Falkor! Let's see how you like it, chickens.
Go away! Nothing matters
Go on.
Good idea.
Have a good day, son. Don't be late for school again.
Having a luck dragon with you is the only way to go on a quest.
He doesn't realize he's already part of The Neverending Story.
He doesn't understand that he's the one with the power to stop it.
He went through everything you went through
He'll never make it.
How did all this happen?
I also know that you...
I am Gmork
I can't believe it.
I can't find my luck dragon.
I couldn't hold on to them.
I do not know.
I don't know.
I don't think so.
I failed.
I had another dream, Dad, about Mom.
I knew he'd be safe.
I know. And all because I failed.
I will not die easily.
If the Ivory Tower still stands, take us there.
Is it really me?
It's a monster!
It's good to have a friend again.
Just as he is sharing all your adventures...
Koreander's
Let's get him!
Let's hope so, Atreyu. Let's hope so.
Look!
Maybe the chicken can lay an egg in there.
Maybe, it's already everywhere.
My little friends.
My mother...
Never give up and good luck will find you.
Nice bouquet.
No money? Mamma's boy is holding out.
No.
Not that it matters, but yes.
Not that it matters, but yes.
Now it's my turn with him.
Run, Atreyu!
Save us!
So we started talking...
So, it's not just in our part of Fantasia?
Stay awake!
Take care
Take this.
The Auryn!
The eyes are opening!
The heart of Fantasia!
The home of the Empress.
The Ivory Tower!
The Nothing...
Then everything's been in vain.
Then how do we find a human child?
Then my first wish is...
They can't be talking about me.
They threw me in the garbage.
They were with him...
To find a cure for the Empress...
Unicorns. They were unicorns.
We don't know...
We have been waiting for you a long time
We still have a long way to go.
We'll get you!
We'll reach the boundaries of Fantasia.
We're tired of sneezing.
Well, what is it? I have to know!
What a shame they don't ask me.
What can I do for you?
What if he doesn't appear?
What is it, Artax?
What is that?
What is the Nothing?
What would you like to wish for next?
What's wrong?
Where I come from in the North, we us to have exquisite gourmet rocks.
Who said you could get out of the garbage?
Who?
Why don't you do what you dream, Bastian?
Why?
Yes, we are.
Yes, we do.
Yes, you did.
You brought him with you.
You can't.
You keep quiet, wench.
You know how to get there?
You know how to help the Empress, don't you?
You must go alone.
You've come to the right place, my boy.
Can you see anything? Anything at all? No.
Like it? Falkor, it's wonderful.
Sorry. Poor baby.
... can do it
... in which he's reading his own story...
...before you reach the Southern Oracle...
...is destroying our world.
...like good...
...really do know about me in Fantasia?
...scales from a rancid sea serpent.
...she had such a wonderful name.
...that one little boy could be that important.
...The Last of the Mohicans, Wizard of Oz...
...the Southern Oracle.
...we haven't seen...
...who could have stopped the Nothing.
...you would be willing to go on a quest?
"...elsewhere in Fantasia, a Creature of Darkness...
"...rich and beautiful world had been left by the Nothing. "
"...the Desert of Shattered Hopes and the Crystal Towers...
"Atreyu and Artax had searched the Silver Mountains...
"It was midnight in the Howling Forest.
"That was the end of Fantasia.
