If you loved The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, try The Pagemaster

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 Joe Johnston, and they sit in Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Pagemaster is

A boy who’d rather read than risk a scraped knee gets a crash course in adventure when the library decides to teach him the hard way. On a stormy afternoon, a freak storm whisks him into a living storybook where every shelf is a new quest. The real surprise? He walks out more afraid of libraries than of anything else.
