Filmmaker and quirk-meister extraordinaire Wes Anderson continues to entertain and beguile with new work, not least in current hit The Phoenician Scheme. With this earlier, enchanting animation starring the wily fox, adapted from Roald Dahl’s book, Anderson brought together meticulous design and stop motion, with the star-studded voices of Clooney, Streep, Murray, and others, to create an almost tactile, dog eared, fabulous farm world and setting for the fox to save his gang. Funny, adventurous, heart-warming too, Mr Fox is truly fantastic on the big screen.

After the screening, join us in the IFI foyer for some free play and foxy crafts.
