About Nestor, the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey
Nestor the donkey is a bit of an oddity--his long ears are enough for six donkeys and stretch all the way to the ground. One night, when Nestor is locked out in the cold, he begins to wander the desert.
Directed by Jules Bass, Arthur Rankin, Jr., Nestor, the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey leans on a strong ensemble — Roger Miller, Eric Stern, Paul Frees — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1977.
