Description: TOYS IN THE ATTIC (DVD 2013) BRAND NEW!!! - PG - WS - ANIMATED - FAMILY - FANTASY - THRILLER PRODUCT INFORMATION PROVIDED BELOW ~ Product Description Toys in the Attic is a meticulously crafted visual feast, combining multiple forms of animation into an enchanting and fantastic adventure for the entire family. Set in a magical world of toys and knick-knacks stored in the attic of a home in Prague, this award-winning stop-motion animated feature has been called: an animation masterpiece (Anima Basauri), and: a diabolically inventive tale that is four parts Toy Story and one part Tim Burton (New York International Childrens Film Festival). The setting for the film was inspired by the cultural and political contrast of the Cold War era and its impact on director Jiri Barta and the Czech Republic. The world of the attic is divided into the land of happy toys in the West and the Land of Evil in the East. The despotic Head of State rules over the Land of Evil with a band of sinister minions, insects and rotted vegetables. When the lovely Buttercup (Vivian Schilling) is kidnapped and held prisoner by The Head (Jiri Labus, with voice by Douglas Urbanski), it is up to her friends - a teddy bear (Forest Whitaker), a mechanical mouse (Joan Cusack) and marionette puppet (Cary Elwes) to cross the international boundary and attempt their daring rescue. With top critical praise from major reviewers (including The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times and USA Today), Toys in the Attic is the rare gem that satisfies on all three levels of artistic merit, intellectual intrigue and visual delight. Review Strange, beautiful and intricately told…delightfully weird with glorious imagery and a sweet little story. --Manohla Dargis, NEW YORK TIMES Visually delightful…the stop motion action is nonstop and deliriously bent. --Sherri Linden, LOS ANGELES TIMES Amazing! A weirder and darker version of Toy Story from the European Tim Burton. --Wendy Matheson, USA TODAY About the Actor FOREST WHITAKER won the Academy Award for his stunning performance in The Last King of Scotland. JOAN CUSACK is a film veteran, perhaps best known for her roles in the smash hit TOY STORY series. CARY ELWES is another respected and loved industry veteran, with legions of fans from his valiant lead in The Princess Bride. VIVIAN SCHILLING is a critically praised novelist and screenwriter, with acting credits from Savage Land to Civil War Stories. About the Director Legendary Czech animation director JIRI BARTA exploded onto the world animation scene with his Cannes-festival short film, The Pied Piper of Hamelin. Then after the collapse of the Soviet Bloc nations and the loss of goverment funding for the arts, Barta moved into commercial and industrial film production and had not completed a mainsteam feature in almost 20 years before shooting Na Pude (aka Toys in the Attic). With the help of English Adaptation writer-producer-director VIVIAN SCHILLING, this amazing animated feature is finally available for U.S. audiences, and heralds one of the finest voice-talent casts ever assembled.StorylineIn an attic full of discarded junk, a pretty doll called Buttercup lives in an old trunk together with her friends, the marionette Sir Handsome, the lovable Teddy Bear, a Mechanical Mouse and the plasticine creature, Laurent. When Buttercup is snatched and taken off to the Land of Evil, her pals set out on a wondrous and daring adventure to rescue her from the all-powerful Head of State.
