Sinopsis
Mickey falls through the dark into the Night Kitchen where three fat bakers are making the morning cake and so begins an intoxicating dream fantasy in this animated short adaptation of Maurice Sendak's 1970 Caldecott Honor children's picture book.
Donde viven los monstruos (Where the wild things are) es uno de los libros infantiles más vendidos de la historia. Su escritor, Maurice Sendak fue merecedor de la Caldecott Medal, uno de los más prestigiosos premios de literatura infantil, en 1964 por este libro. Ahora, pasados casi 50 años de la edición original, esa pequeña historia de un niño llamado Max que se enfada con su madre y la imaginación lo lleva allí donde están los monstruos, llegará a la gran pantalla. La historia, dirigida por Spike Jonze, nos cuenta el viaje que hace Max a través de un bosque que repentinamente crece en su habitación hacia el mar, donde embarcará días, semanas, meses y años hasta llegar a la isla donde viven los monstruos, seres de grandes dimensiones, peludos y con los ojos amarillos de los que cualquier niño tendría miedo.
Art class is over, but Vashti is sitting glued to her chair in front of a blank piece of paper. The words of her teacher are a gentle invitation to express herself. But Vashti can’t draw - she’s no artist. To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says. That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds’s delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.
