If you loved Animal Farm, try Five Children and It
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by John Stephenson. If that's the register that drew you to Animal Farm, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Five Children and It is
This one goes for wish fulfillment, literally. Five siblings discover a grumpy sand fairy called It with the power to grant a single wish per day until sunset. The children experience predictable problems as a result of their frivolous requests. It is what it is.
