The Seventh Master of the House
Not until four years after The Fox's Widow was the third fairytale movie, The Seventh Master of the House, released – Caprino's personal favourite. This is a wonderful fairytale and a sharp satire on everyday bureaucracy. Caprino knew all about that – in fact, you might say that the movie was an indirect stab at the bureaucrats who had considered all his funding applications.

Meet the cheeky, but kind-hearted, Little Frick and his fiddle as he works for three years for three shillings and compassionately gives them away to every vagabond he meets. But the reward is immense.
