Fantastic Mr. Fox Giveaway

Fantastic Mr. Fox recently opened in theaters and I’ve read some great reviews about the movie. The video I posted of Let Her Dance, from the Fantastic Mr. Fox Soundtrack, only makes me want to watch the movie even more!

FANTASTIC MR. FOX...features a score from Academy Award ® nominated and Golden Globe ® winning composer, Alexandre Desplat, and an eclectic range of evocative songs from the Rolling Stones, Beach Boys, Art Tatum, Burl Ives, Jarvis Cocker. Cocker co-wrote and performed the track entitled “Petey’s Song,” especially for the film.

FANTASTIC MR. FOX is visionary director Wes Anderson’s first animated film, utilizing classic handmade stop-motion techniques to tell the story of the classic children’s book by Roald Dahl (author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach).Peter Travers of Rolling Stone Magazine calls the film “literate stop-motion magic that deserves to be called groundbreaking”.

The film features the voices of George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Wally Wolodarsky, Eric Anderson, Michael Gambon, Willem Dafoe, Owen Wilson, and Jarvis Cocker. The screenplay is by Wes Anderson and Noah Baumbach, and the film is produced by Allison Abbate, Scott Rudin, Wes Anderson and Jeremy Dawson.

Mr. and Mrs. Fox (Clooney and Streep) live an idyllic home life with their son Ash (Schwartzman) and visiting young nephew Kristofferson (Eric Anderson). But after twelve 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 and 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.
