BABE

Dir. Chris Noonan | UK | 1995 | 91 mins. | Animal Comedy

`Babe'' is the all-time great talking-pig movie, a lovely, intelligent gem of  entertainment that is also rib-tickling funny. A novelty comedy that transcends its own nutty devices, ``Babe'' is about a pig who not only talks but thinks he is a sheep dog.

Features talking barnyard animals and a lovable farm couple, the Hoggetts, played by American James Cromwell and Australian comic actress Magda Szubanski, whose plump, snub-nosed look carries a certain Miss Piggy charm.
