Back in the days before computers blessed even late-night TV commercials with loads of snazzy visuals, Ray Harryhausen created magic the old-fashioned way: by hand, frame by frame. His stop-motion animated effects of sword-fighting skeletons and lumbering giants are among cinema’s most memorable images. American Cinematheque screens a double feature of “The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad” (1958) and “The Three Worlds of Gulliver” (1960), and Harryhausen himself will be there to screen 30 minutes of rare visual-effects footage.
