(Brad Bird, US 1999, 86 min.)

Celebrate the holidays with the animated film that is quickly becoming a new family classic. Based on a story by poet Ted Hughes, the tale of a giant robot from outer space and his young protector Hogarth is both a hilarious send-up of 1950s mores and a heartwarming portrait of friendship, tenderness, and humanity. The voice talents include Jennifer Aniston, Harry Connick Jr., and Vin Diesel as the title character.
