Trying to find name of animated movie with giant set to Simon & Garfunkel songs

[dak...@gmail.com]

Hi,

As a kid at school they used to project a movie on rainy days. It was
about a grumpy giant who lived in a castle and kept kids out. Then,
winter and fall seasons visited, and convinced him otherwise.

Anybody know what this is? I can't find it anywhere.

Can't remember *which* version of "The Selfish Giant" had S&G songs--
Wasn't the 70's Reader's Digest version, was it?

Was it the one that was nominated for an Oscar, but lost to that stupid
"Crunch Bird" thing?

Probably was (and I still scratch my head at why Crunch Bird won at
all, I guess it's quirky joke impressed the voters at the time).

That's it. Just found it on YouTube-- apparently, doesn't actually
have S&G tunes.

Thanks for helping me find it though.
