CHARLOTTE’S WEB SYNOPSIS
The classic story of loyalty, trust, and sacrifice comes to life in this live-action adaptation of Charlotte’s Web. Fern (Dakota Fanning) immediately sees that Wilbur is a special animal as she raises him, the runt of the litter, into a ‘terrific’ and ‘radiant’ pig. As Wilbur moves into a new barn, he begins a second profound friendship with the most unlikely of creatures – a spider named Charlotte – and their bond inspires the animals around them to come together as a family. When the word gets out that Wilbur’s days are numbered, it seems that only a miracle will save his life. A determined Charlotte – who sees miracles in the ordinary – spins words into her web in an effort to convince the farmer that Wilbur is “some pig” and worth saving.
