"Scram…this is not a farm!”
"When George Miller is given creative control for the sequel to Chris Noonan’s BABE (1995), he makes the greatest neo-noir about a pig the 20th century has probably ever seen. With a pretty major tonal and stylistic shift from the original, BABE PIG IN THE CITY grapples with nihilism, subjective morality, and an un-navigable urban landscape as Babe the sheep-pig takes on 'The City' to try and get the money he needs to save his boss’ farm.
You may be thinking: 'George Miller… the MAD MAX guy? Why would he make a kids' movie about a pig?' But you see the effects, the costuming, the sets, and it makes sense." - Staff Pick by Lee Emmerich, Projectionist
