Wes Anderson is known for his idiosyncratic style that combines precise compositions with bright colors and detailed miniatures. With Fantastic Mr. Fox, he uses the freeing medium of stop-motion animation to take these elements one step further. Featuring the voices of Anderson regulars Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, and big-name newcomers like George Clooney and Meryl Streep (Mr. and Mrs. Fox respectively), Fantastic Mr. Fox tells the story of a family of foxes living an idyllic home life...but after twelve years, the bucolic existence proves inadequate for Mr. Fox’s wild animal instincts and he slips into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief, endangering not only his beloved family but the whole animal community. Utilizing classic old-fashioned techniques, Anderson brings Roald Dahl’s children’s story to life and argues that being different isn’t bad—it’s fantastic.
