GRAMMY-winning composer Danny Elfman's Golden Globe-nominated score is illuminated by the Cincinnati Pops, providing the perfect soundtrack to Tim Burton's stop-motion animated musical dark fantasy The Nightmare Before Christmas. First released in 1993, the film was directed by Henry Selick ("James and the Giant Peach") and based on a story and characters by Tim Burton. The film follows the earnest-but-misguided adventures of Jack Skellington, Halloween Town's beloved Pumpkin King, as he attempts to take over the Christmas holiday. Against the advice of Sally, a lonely beautiful rag doll who has feelings for him, Jack enlists three mischievous trick-or-treaters - Lock, Shock, and Barrel - to help him kidnap Santa Claus. The film is rated "PG."
