Fantastic Mr Fox
Chiswick Cinema marks Roald Dahl Day in partnership with Chiswick Book Festival with a series of beloved adaptations of his works. Sparks of cleverness, streaks of the grotesque and flashes of friendliness and wit await in a surprising and heartwarming family season. Films play every Saturday and Sunday mornings exclusively for children (14 and under) accompanied by adults. Tickets are £6.
This is the story of Mr. Fox (George Clooney) and his wild ways of hen heckling, turkey taking, and cider sipping, nocturnal, instinctive adventures. He has to put his wild days behind him and do what fathers do best: be responsible. He is too rebellious. He is too wild. He is going to try “just one more raid” on the three nastiest, meanest farmers that are Walter Boggis (Robin Hurlstone), Nathan Bunce (Hugo Guinness), and Franklin Bean (Sir Michael Gambon). It is a tale of crossing the line of family responsibilities and midnight adventure and the friendships and awakenings of this country life that is inhabited by Fantastic Mr. Fox and his friends.
