{Friday Sneak Peak} Dr Seuss' The Grinch - Out November 9th
For
their eighth fully animated feature, Illumination and Universal Pictures
present The Grinch, based on Dr. Seuss’ beloved holiday classic. The
Grinch tells the story of a cynical grump who goes on a mission to steal
Christmas, only to have his heart changed by a young girl’s generous holiday
spirit. Funny, heartwarming and visually
stunning, it’s a universal story about the spirit of Christmas and the
indomitable power of optimism.
Academy
Award® nominee Benedict Cumberbatch lends his voice to the infamous
Grinch, who lives a solitary life inside a cave on Mt. Crumpet with only his
loyal dog, Max, for company. With a cave
rigged with inventions and contraptions for his day-to-day needs, the Grinch
only sees his neighbors in Who-ville when he runs out of food.
Each
year at Christmas they disrupt his tranquil solitude with their increasingly
bigger, brighter and louder celebrations.
When the Whos declare they are going to make Christmas three times
bigger this year, the Grinch realizes there is only one way for him to gain
some peace and quiet: he must steal Christmas.
To do so, he decides he will pose as Santa Claus on Christmas Eve, even
going so far as to trap a lackadaisical misfit reindeer to pull his sleigh.
Meanwhile,
down in Who-ville, Cindy-Lou Who—a young girl overflowing with holiday
cheer—plots with her gang of friends to trap Santa Claus as he makes his
Christmas Eve rounds so that she can thank him for help for her overworked
single mother. As Christmas approaches,
however, her good-natured scheme threatens to collide with the Grinch’s more
nefarious one. Will Cindy-Lou achieve
her goal of finally meeting Santa Claus?
Will the Grinch succeed in silencing the Whos’ holiday cheer once and
for all?
My son and I saw an early screening of Dr Seuss' The Grinch, and LOVED this film. I have been a huge fan, since I was a young girl! My son connected with the story of The Grinch, and the challenge the young Whos faced. We both enjoyed the music, and giggled throughout the entire movie! I am so happy that my son and I were able to share in watching it together! You and your family, must see this movie!
