Piglet's Own Movie
Piglet has always felt a little scared, a tad inadequate, because of his size. In A.A. Milne's original "Winnie The Pooh," the poor little one is quoted as saying, "WHAT?", with a jump, to show that he hadn't been frightened, he jumped up and down once or twice more in an exercising sort of way. In Chapter Seven, "It is hard to be brave," said Piglet, sniffling slightly, "when you're only a very small animal." In Chapter Nine, Piglet says, "It's a little anxious," he said to himself, "to be a very small animal entirely surrounded by water." Piglet's catchphrase was, "Oh, dear! Oh, d-d-d-dear-dear!
"Piglet's Big Movie" was released in 2003 as an animated feature length production based on the characters in the Winnie-The-Pooh books and opened as #7 on it's opening weekend and a total box office for the movie run of over 23 million dollars. It was preceded by "The Tigger Movie" in 2000 and followed by "Winnie The Pooh: Springtime with Roo," released in 2004. In his film, Piglet is ashamed of being small, but he eventually learns that it's not so bad. Winnie and all of the pals learn that you don't have to be big to do big things.
During three flashback sequences the first adaptations of the original Winnie The Pooh stories, but edited to make Piglet the hero of the stories and conform the rest of the characters personalities as Disney portrayed them but it still manages to retain much of the original plot, but makes that statement that you don't have to be big to do big things. The movie is story of friendship, fun and appreciation filled with adventure, laughter and heart-felt moments.
As Winnie and friends set forth to harvest honey from the hives in the forest, Piglet is told he is too small to come along. Distraught, Piglet decides to strike out on his own and sets out into the Hundred Acre Wood. When the honey hunters return, they can't find Piglet anywhere, just his scrapbooks of their adventures of the past. As they look through the books, Winnie and his pals realize how much Piglet means to them and how much they've taken him for granted. They set out to find Piglet using his scrapbook for clues, to "think, think, think" for clues as to where he might have gone, and ask him to come home, and along the way the little pig makes a big difference when his pals need him.
"Piglet's Big Movie" continues to air on Disney's Playhouse. The little Piglet proves the point that size doesn't matter when it comes to accomplishing big things, and it's a lesson that not only children learn, but it's a good one for adults, even if it is from a Winnie The Pooh character. - 23815
