Once in a while you come across a film you just really like, and for me, it’s Focus Features The Boxtrolls and is an adaptation of the book “Here Be Monsters!” by Alan Snow. The stop-motion animation studio Laika, the company that gave us Coraline and ParaNorman that were fun films made this one also.
The talent behind some of the voices are; Sir Ben Kingsley (Archibald Snatcher), Elle Fanning (Winnie) and like her sister Dakota (the voice of Coraline) is now part of the Laika family. And Isaac Hempstead Wright (Game of Thrones) is the voice of Eggs.
It’s a film for the whole family; even some very young ones (two-years-old) were able to sit through it.
Below is a video interview with one of the directors, Anthony Stacchi.
The Boxtrolls in theaters September 26.
