The Big Picture No matter how big a star gets in Hollywood, fact is, they all had to start somewhere. And for many of the household names that grace the screen today and even for the last few decades, there are plenty of early films that many fans don't actually know ever happened. And that's probably okay for the successful performers who continue to be on the tips of everyone's tongues today. Take Tom Cruise, for example.
In this magical land of Legend, Princess Lili cannot help but touch a living unicorn, which is a no-no when it comes to keeping the balance of nature intact. This act allows the Lord of Darkness to be able to capture the unicorn's horn, which is the tool he needs to bring forever darkness to the world. This sets Jack on his journey to not only save his love but take back the unicorn's horn and destroy Mr. Demon.
When it was all said and done, thanks to courage and a bit of perfect timing, Jack is able to defeat the forces of evil by casting the Lord of Darkness into an eternal void, take back the unicorn's horn, and snap his beloved Princess Lili out of her hypnotized state. As the unicorn's horn is restored to the animal, darkness disappears from the land, the frozen landscape melts, and the world comes full circle, back to light and good.
