Whites much loved and classic novel is given the babe treatment in this
totally enchanting live action updating. Dakota Fanning plays young Fern
who rescues little runt of the pig litter Little Wilbur from certain
death, Wilbur then moves into the barn with all the other animals (cue
lots of humour as the irrepressible and very cute Wilbur tries to make
friends with the crotchety and set in their ways animals (lots of well
known names contribute voices including the likes John Cleese as a sheep
and Oprah Winfrey as a Goose).
Wilbur's
life changes for ever when he meets and makes friends with extra
ordinary spider Charlotte (voiced by Julia Roberts).
A
lovely family movie that for a refreshing change is actually suitable
for the entire family, one of those leave you with a feel good feeling
kind of movie.

get the DVD, perfect timing for Easter and must see over the
