Hansel and Gretel (German: '''Hänsel und Gretel''') is a 1954 German film, directed by Walter Janssen, based on the story of Hansel and Gretel by the Brothers Grimm.[1] It should not be confused with either Hansel and Gretel, another German film, or an American film Hansel and Gretel, both of which were released in the same year.
In 2007, Hänsel und Gretel was released on DVD in Germany. The film was also part of a five DVD boxset, which contained other classic live-action German fairytale films made in the 1950s.[2]
