The Tale of Despereaux

Tale of Despereaux

The Tale of Despereaux, a great family fantasy film during the holidays or anytime. The movie is based on the book by Kate Dicamillo and stars Dustin Hoffman as Roscuro, Emma Watson as Princess Pea, and Matthew Broderick as Despereaux.

Despereaux is an oddly proportioned mouse. He is extremely small with large floppy ears, and as much courage as the bravest of knights. He was born into the kingdom of Dor where soup and rats have both been banned because of an unfortunate accident that caused the death of the Queen. Ever since that time the world has become dreary and gray with little hope of change. After being banished from his home for his lack of fear Despereaux finds that the Princess has been captured and he embarks on a quest to save her. Joining him for the journey is the rat Roscuro who Despereaux befriends in this clip.
