the fantastic mr.fox movie (book by roald dahl )opens thanksgiving day!!!
yay! i get to interview mr.fox's son ash (jason schwartzman) tomorrow :)
here's what the movie pr person told me to share with mod*mom readers:
fantastic mr. fox is visionary director Wes Anderson’s first animated film, utilizing classic handmade stop-motion techniques to tell the story of the best-selling children’s book by Roald Dahl (author of Charlie + the Chocolate Factory + James and the Giant Peach). The film features the voices of George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Wally Wolodarsky, Eric Anderson, Michael Gambon, Willem Dafoe, Owen Wilson, + Jarvis Cocker.
Mr. + Mrs. Fox (Clooney + Streep) live an idyllic home life with their son Ash (Schwartzman) + visiting young nephew Kristofferson (Eric Anderson). But after 12 years of quiet domesticity, the bucolic existence proves too much for Mr. Fox’s wild animal instincts. Soon he slips back into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief + in doing so, endangers not only his beloved family, but the whole animal community. Trapped underground without enough food to go around, the animals band together to fight against the evil Farmers - Boggis, Bunce and Bean - who are determined to capture the audacious, fantastic Mr. Fox at any cost. In the end, he uses his natural instincts to save his family and friends.
