Review of Babe: Pig in the City (1998) by Elisha B — 27 Jan 2008

The title is something I'd made fun of for years. Only to watch, on yet another recommendation, and find it something other than the "yet another needless sequel + braindead kid movie" I'd assumed it.

Instead it's an often somewhat dark, beautifully surreal, and even occasionally orwellian take on modern society. A brilliant movie, made even more so by the fact that this somehow was snuck under the radar into theaters.
