This "Babe"-style story is about a two Tamworth pigs escaped from a slaughterhouse, absolutely not wanting to become just another pieces of roast pork, in January 1998. This escape became a legend as Butch and Sundance were presented as a folk-heroes by an over-excited media, as they avoided capture for over a week. Eventually, they were saved from certain death by a national newspaper that sent them to an animal sanctuary. For this movie, real pigs were enhanced by computer technology to give them human-like characteristics. Tim Haines, the producer of "Walking With Dinosaurs", supervised the effects for this film. The plucky pigs' way lays through the English countryside to Tamworth, hoping to be reunited with their mother whilst the malevolent slaughterhouse boss, Wolf, plots their capture. Please, do not eat any pork while watching this film! |
