The final feature from AFI Honorary Degree recipient Ray Harryhausen, CLASH OF THE TITANS (1981) is an appropriately Olympian entry in the career of the legendary animator and special effects innovator. A masterpiece of stop-motion effects that include Medusa, Pegasus, the Kraken and more, the film also features Laurence Olivier (named by AFI among cinema’s greatest screen legends), Maggie Smith, Claire Bloom and Ursula Andress as the gods themselves – and Harry Hamlin, Burgess Meredith and Judi Bowker as the mortals who must content with their divine pique.
