[Edit this paragraph] Plot summary

The cute little pig Wilbur (voiced by Dominic Scott Kaye) was born on a happy farm. There are numerous poultry companions such as geese, cows and sheep, as well as good neighbors such as moles and voles, which have been "indigenous people" for generations. However, from the first day it came to this world, it was worried about one thing - because it knew that as a member of the poultry and pigs, it would one day become bacon or sausage on the dinner table. . Fortunately, the lucky Wilbur met the kind and equally lovely farmer's little daughter Finn (Dakota Fenning), and he liked him so much that he begged his father to give her the cute piglet. Personal pets to feed. The happy Wilbur also had his own protective umbrella and good friends. After that, the little pig Wilbur grew up and gradually met more good partners on the farm: Mrs. Goose Gus (voiced by Oprah Winfrey) and Mr. Goose Golly, the old goat Samuel, the little The mouse Templet (voiced by Steve Buscemi), the white horse Ike (voiced by Robert Redford)... Among them, Wilbur's favorite is the beautiful spider Charlotte who weaves a web on the door frame every day. (voiced by Julia Roberts). The happy days passed day by day, and Wilbur became fatter and fatter. One day, the old goat Samuel brought a terrible news - the farmer Mr. Ella Burr (Kevin Anderson) plans to use Wilbur as the main course of this year's Christmas dinner...

[Edit this paragraph] Behind the Scenes

"Charlotte's Web" is a story about friendship and suffering, adapted from the fairy tale book of the same name written by the famous American prose writer E. B. White. Writer E.B. White has been fond of animals since he was a child and even owned his own farm when he grew up. His depictions of animals are delicate and lifelike but not cliché. The story is full of surprises and fascinating. Paired with smooth and vivid writing, children who have read it can't put it down. Hugely hooked.

According to statistics, "Charlotte's Web" has been published in 23 languages ??around the world since its publication in 1952, with a total circulation of 45 million copies. It has accompanied people all over the world for decades. Countless children and teenagers have grown up, and it has become an indispensable designated book on teachers' reading lists. Its status as a European and American classic is comparable to "The Little Prince".

The movie "Charlotte's Web" began production in early 2005. At that time, Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts, who had just given birth to twins, decided to serve as a voice behind the scenes for this animated film. The role of the voice was exactly the story. The protagonist, little spider Charlotte, shoulders the important responsibility of saving her friend Piggy. The entire dubbing lineup is quite impressive. In addition to Julia Roberts, there are also American TV talk show queens Oprah, Cassie Bates, and Outkast member Andrew.

Although Dakota Fenning, the leading actor who plays Finn in the movie, is only 12 years old, she is already an experienced acting actor. She has participated in "I Am Sam" and "Spicy Baby" , "Dream Benz" and many other works. Some people commented that Dakota Fenning's slightly immature face conveyed thoughts and wise messages beyond her age. Although her debut has not been long, Dakota Fanning has repeatedly appeared in commercial films starring big-name stars. Be sincere but not pretentious, be young but not ignorant, and your future stardom is immeasurable.

It has long been an unwritten practice for Hollywood animated blockbusters to invite big-name stars to lend their voices, and it is also one of the biggest attractions of such films. However, it seems that few previous films have a more star-studded voice cast than this one. Look at their names: Julia Roberts, the big-mouthed actress, voiced a character for the second time after the 3D animated film "Don't Mess with the Ants"; as one of the only female members of the "Twenty Million Dollar Club" in Hollywood In recent years, Phoenix girl Julia Roberts has made up her mind to retire from the film industry one day. After becoming a beautiful mother, she has greatly lost interest in movies, claiming that she does not want her twin babies to immediately think of their mother when they mention her in the future. The beautiful prostitute in "Pretty Woman" decided to switch to Broadway and pursue a purely artistic route. And this half-human, half-animated "Charlotte's Web" is likely to be the final film before "Big Mouth" bids farewell to the film industry, and will become the last opportunity for movie fans to covet her big-mouthed style. And the beautiful lady also used the mouth of the spider Charlotte to tell the children the truth about being helpful and working hard. It is indeed a clever tutoring trick that kills two birds with one stone. In addition to the big-mouthed beauties, the dubbing team of the film also has another famous mouth that can cause countless screams - "Talk Show Queen" Oprah Winfrey. Queen Oprah's rapid-fire voice perfectly complements the mean and noisy Mrs. Goose Gus in the story, and she has only two main tasks in the film: one is to squeeze Wilbur the pig when she is bored. IQ, the other is to defend to the death its right to never make sausage and bacon at critical moments. After "The Horse Whisperer" that made many people cry, Robert Redford, who has gradually shifted his work focus to behind-the-scenes work, will once again get to know cute animals through this film...

< p>Movie review

As early as 1973, director Charles Nichols adapted "Charlotte's Web" into a musical cartoon for the big screen. At that time, the voice of Charlotte, the gray spider, was the famous actress Debbie Reynolds, who became famous in the famous musical film "Singin' in the Rain". The film received rave reviews after its release. To this day, it is still a repertoire of many traditional American families spending their weekends together. Since then, "Charlotte's Web" seems to have disappeared into the sea of ??Hollywood commercial films. There was no movie version again, a long wait of thirty-three years. Now it has finally been reborn under the guidance of director Gary Winnick. What's even more exciting is that this time Paramount Pictures has launched it with all its heart - not only did it use advanced film technology to shoot a live-action version, but it also invited many superstars to join. Director Gary Winnick, who is well-known to movie fans for his work on "30", has been making high-profile claims that he has been a loyal fan of the original fairy tale since he was a child. This time he can finally realize his dream. He is flattered. Even more excited. Naturally, I will do my best to contribute masterpieces to the fans, and I don’t want to leave any regrets for myself in the future.

The original work of the film, the famous prose novelist E.B. White, is more worthy of people's respect and memory...

[Edit this paragraph] The inspiration sprouted

The decision to put "Charlotte's Web" on the big screen came entirely by chance. Producer Jordan Kerner (Jordan Kerner), who has produced the films "G-Man", "Tarzan" and "Ice Dog Mission", read this children's book to his young daughters, and Kerner clearly remembered it. , my mother told this story to herself when she was a child. As he was reading about it, a child asked: "Why did Fin leave Wilbur at the market regardless of his safety?" Kona suddenly remembered that he had had a lot of similar questions when he was 3 or 4 years old. There are also questions about life and death, how long will we live? What happens to the people we love? This story is suitable for all ages and has a wide audience base. It would be a good choice to make a movie.

Kerner and executive producer Paul Neesan worked together to complete the 28-page synopsis. In addition to obtaining inspiration and materials from the original work, Koerner and Neeson also went to Cornell University, E.B. White's alma mater, to conduct extensive research and added many details of White's life into the film. After everything was ready, the producers invited Susanna Grant, the screenwriter of "Never Compromise", and Karey Kirkpatrick, the screenwriter of "Chicken Run", to jointly adapt the script.

Since "Charlotte's Web" was adapted into a cartoon in 1973, it has never been able to reach the big screen. The producers hope to find a helmsman who can reinterpret this classic children's book. Among independent filmmakers, Koner thought of Gary Winnick. His 2004 film "Girls Dream 30" showed a directing style that focused on emotion and humor. This beautiful sentiment is exactly what What this film strives for, Winnick was eventually selected as the film's director.

[Edit this paragraph] Carefully presented

In order to reflect the style of the original author E.B. White and illustrator Gus Williams as much as possible, the crew specially traveled to New Zealand and Australia After selecting the location, it was finally found that the town of Victoria in Australia was the most suitable for the Maine scene in the film. Stuart Wurtzel, the production designer who was nominated for the Oscar for "Hannah and the Sisters", designed various designs for the film. Different buildings include the house where the Erebe family lives, the house where the Suckermans live and the farm they own, the bacon factory and other buildings, as well as the cornfields that appear in the film. The producers wanted the scenes in the film to look nostalgic and timeless, so they looked to the work of contemporary American photographer William Eggleston as a source of inspiration, said director Gary Winnick. : "His photography influenced the style of this film, especially in the use of color, and his work presents the timeless American spirit." In addition, in order to be faithful to the description in the original work, every department of the crew, the film Every prop, every costume and every color that appears in the film strives to achieve the visual effects of the original work.

The piglet Wilbur is the star with the most important role in the film, so professional animal trainers have become the key to the smooth filming of the film. Even director Gary Winnick had to lament: " Of course I knew that the animals' performances would account for a large proportion of the film, but I didn't expect that the animal trainers would have to spend so much time and energy to get the various animals to perform the actions and performances we needed. They are the real stars of the film. "And Australia's quarantine system is very strict. The six-month quarantine period forced the crew to use local materials. This means that these piglets have not received any training before, and the trainers have to start from scratch. Since piglets can usually only learn one stunt and gain 1 pound every day, time is of the essence. Therefore, up to 25 piglets will be on standby for each scene. The most suitable piglets will be selected to perform on camera according to different needs. The entire film was shot using 47 piglets. As for other animals, Winnick could only shake his head and say with a smile: "We can send humans to the moon, but no matter how loud we roar or use various methods, we can't call a cow." The difficulties don't stop there, and sometimes God even It’s no secret that in 3 to 40 days, the crew didn’t even complete a complete scene.

Live shooting is only the beginning of the entire film, because the director not only has to coordinate real actors, animal actors, and mechanical animals to act together, but also finally adds computer special effects.

After the on-site shooting is over, the main event really begins, because the animators must use the most advanced computer animation technology to make piglets talk, spiders weave complex webs, or other animals express thoughts and emotions and perform difficult movements. Director Gary Winnick said: "Charlotte's spider is only a few centimeters long, but Ike's horse is more than a hundred centimeters tall. It is not easy to put them together in the same shot. We The world of farm animals and the world of humans have to be blended together to tell the complete story. In fact, we made two movies, one is a live-action movie and the other is a stand-in. The animal characters are added to the movie with computer animation special effects. We hope that the two can be blended together seamlessly."
