Directed by Alfred L. Werker and Hamilton Luske. Starring Robert Benchley, Frances Gifford, Buddy Pepper, Nana Bryant and Claud Allister.
Lyradrift plots The Reluctant Dragon as a star at the centre of its own sky, with related films orbiting it as satellites, gathered from TMDB recommendations, shared themes, Wikidata links (same director, writer, series, source material or subject) and closeness of feel, then chosen for the strongest evidence — the closer and brighter a star, the more strongly it is related. Fly to any satellite to make it the new centre and keep exploring.
