At times this adaptation of Roald Dahl’s slender anti-fable — truer to the spirit than to the letter of the source — does not even look like a movie. In spite of the pedigreed voices (Meryl Streep and Bill Murray, along with George Clooney in the title role), it feels more like an extended episode of what progressive educators call imaginative play. The sets might just as well have been built out of available household stuff, the stiff figurines animated and ventriloquized on a classroom or bedroom floor by precocious children.

After giving his acceptance speech, the audio of the speech was used in a short animation of Anderson's character (Weasel) giving the speech, animated by Payton Curtis, a key stop-motion animator on the film. [44] See also [ edit ] Roger Ebert gave the film three and a half stars out of four, writing that, like Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, children may find some aspects of the film perplexing or scary, which he considered a positive element to a children's film. [29] Devin D. O'Leary of Weekly Alibi called it "a one-of-a-kind family classic." [30] Soon after the Foxes move in, Felicity's nephew Kristofferson Silverfox comes to live with them due to his father receiving long-term medical treatment for double pneumonia. While Mr. and Mrs. Fox welcome him, Ash finds this situation intolerable, as his soft-spoken cousin is superior to him at almost everything and is charming everyone at his expense. Longing for his days as a thief, Mr. Fox and his opossum friend Kylie, the superintendent, steal produce and poultry from Boggis and Bunce's farms. They take Kristofferson along on the raid on Bean's cider cellar, which deepens Ash's resentment. Mr. Fox conceals these outings from Felicity, who becomes suspicious when unexplained food appears in their larder.

It’s an American holiday of ubiquitous iconography and tradition: the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, the NFL on CBS , and a countrywide feast of biblical proportions. For better or worse, most of us eagerly anticipate our chance to participate in the American myth-making machine, every time the fourth Thursday in November rolls around. But if asked to provide a list of movies that epitomize the truest essence of Thanksgiving, most of us would probably start to run out of examples after perhaps John Hughes’ ‘Planes, Trains, and Automobiles’ and maybe a few others. One movie that most people likely overlook in this discussion is Wes Anderson’s ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’ , which, dare I say, is a fantastic exemplification of the essential themes for which the notion of Thanksgiving was originally conceived – those themes being: the importance of family (blood or chosen), building a sense of community through the sharing of food and resources, and a concerted effort to appreciate who we are, what we have, and more importantly, who we have in this wild world.

According to Time, the film is "both a delightful amusement and a distillation of the filmmaker's essential playfulness" [32] and was one of the ten best films of the year. [33] Cosmo Landesman of The Sunday Times said "having a quirky auteur like Anderson make a children's film is a bit like David Byrne, of Talking Heads, recording an album of nursery rhymes produced by Brian Eno". According to Landesman: The director Anderson chose to record the voices outside rather than in a studio: "We went out in a forest, went in an attic, and went in a stable. We went underground for some things. There was a great spontaneity in the recordings because of that". [10] The voices were recorded before any animation was done. [15] Animation [ edit ]

In some ways (Wes Anderson's) most fully realized and satisfying film. Once you adjust to its stop-and-start rhythms and its scruffy looks, you can appreciate its wit, its beauty and the sly gravity of its emotional undercurrents. The work done by the animation director, Mark Gustafson, by the director of photography, Tristan Oliver, and by the production designer, Nelson Lowry, shows amazing ingenuity and skill, and the music (by Alexandre Desplat, with the usual shuffle of well-chosen pop tunes, famous and obscure) is both eccentric and just right.
