The Nutcracker in 3D is a surprise. I didn’t know it was in production or that it was opening this Thanksgiving. With that said, I am posting this for my daughter. She loves The Nutcracker story, although the trailer is spectacular with the story twisted, but looks entertaining if I don’t get lost in all the hoopla.
Acclaimed Russian director Andrei Konchalovsky brings us The Nutcracker starring Elle Fanning, John Turturro, Nathan Lane and Charlie Rowe. The movie follows nine-year-old Mary (Fanning) whose dull Viennese Christmas is suddenly filled with excitement and adventure following the arrival of her beloved Uncle Albert (Lane). He gives her an enchanted nutcracker.
On Christmas night, Mary's new friend, The Nutcracker (Rowe), comes to life and takes her on a wondrous journey into his magical world of fairies, sugarplums, and other Christmas toys which come to life. Mary soon realizes that this fantastical kingdom is facing danger from the tyrannical rule of the evil Rat King (Turturro) and his devious mother (Frances de la Tour). When NC is taken hostage, Mary and her newfound toy friends must uncover the secret of the Rat King to rescue NC and his kingdom.
Based on the story that inspired acclaimed Russian composer Piotr Tchaikovsky to create the music for the iconic ballet, the film includes eight exciting new songs penned by Oscar-winning lyricist and librettist Sir Tim Rice.
