PARK CITY gamekeepers.citysearch.com "Chicken Run" Mrs. Tweedy, the pencil-thin vil-lainess vil-lainess w ho looks like a former SS she-guard, thinks the pathetic chickens on her farm are only good for a few things. If they don't lay enough eggs, off w ith their heads. Better yet, why not throw all of them into pot pies? But the dough-faced henpecked Mr. Tweedy thinks something is going on with the chickens. They're getting organized! Out of the corner cor-ner of his eye. he can spot 'em doing close-order calisthenics. He doesnl know the half of it. In the claymation classic "Chicken Run." director-producers, Nick Park and Peter Lord prove that their clucker-ensemble cast can be funny, heroic and poignant all at once. The story is set shortly after W orld War 11. and the heroine is Ginger (voiced by Julia Sawalha) a plucky hen with a green wool cap w ho hatches one scheme after another to escape from Tweedy s POW-stv lized chicken farm. Every effort (digging under the fence, tunnelling, tun-nelling, disguising the flock as a gawky scarecrow) gets her tossed into the coal bin as "solitan con finement." (In the dark, she does bear a passing resemblance to Steve McQueen.) Her brightest hope yet is a Rhode Island Red named Rocky who drops into the yard, together wiih a tattered poster billing him as a "Hying Rooster." W ittily voiced by Mel Gibson, he's an egotistical civk-of-the-walk who doesn't have the nerve to confess how his "flying" "fly-ing" is accomplished. ' "Chicken Run" is a film that will likely appeai more to adults than toddlers of the very-young persuasion. persua-sion. There are more than a few references to "The Great Escape" plus "The Flight, of the Phoenix" and (since this is being released through Steven Spielberg's Dreamworks) there's an Indiana Jones escapade where Ginger and Rocky are trapped in a pie machine. (This sequence also illustrates illus-trates that the phrase Great Jumping Gravy is more than an expletive.) In an age when feature cartooning cartoon-ing turns more and more to the computer. Park and Lord show the artistry, thrills and fun behind the painstaking process of Claymation. (They're more parent-friendly than "Celebrity Death Match.") And anyway, it's just plain funny to see an action film w here the protagonists pro-tagonists are a bunch of poultry w ho behave like genteel British matrons. (Imagine the screen filled with hens, fighting the urge to panic-and then panicking.) All of them look like the Nick Park creatures crea-tures familiar from the "Wallace and Gromit" shorts, with their goggled gog-gled eyes and polite, toothy expressions. expres-sions. And despite all that, they manage to display courage, determination deter-mination and brains. It's also impressive that the filmmakers film-makers didn't abandon the essential Bniishness of the piece. Although Rocky the rooster is portrayed by the only major star in the cast (American-born Gibson) he remains the secondary hero of the picture. In fact, the Ginger Rocky romance reflects on the prickly affections between Anglos and Americans, in which the English are partly dazzled by Yankee charisma, but also exasperated because they're "overpaid, oversexed, over-sexed, and over here." (Truth be told, though, this across-the-pond romance isnl as interesting as the John Oeese-Jamie Lee Curtis trvst- ing of "A Fish Called Wanda.") The supporting cast includes an unintelligible Scottish chicken .; named Mac (voiced by Lynn Ferguson) who engineers all of Gingers schemes; Fowler (Benjamin Whitrow) a harrumph-ing harrumph-ing ex-RAF rooster, tw o sardonic but dumb rats with black market connections. Nick and Fetcher (Phil Daniels and Tun Spall): and the endearingly ditsy Babs (Jane Horrocks) who spends all of her time knitting. (After one close call, she confesses, "1 saw my whole life flash before my eyes It was really real-ly boring") In addition, there's Miranda Richardson and Tony 1 lav garth as the Tweedys. All of them are at the sen-ice of a script w hich conjures up eve ry form of fowl word-play imaginable. For once, it's not sexist to refer to "A swell bunch of chicks." P.S.: Will this movie turn people into vegetarians? Mavbe so, since there is one scare-nfic sequence where the sad-looking hen Edwina gets axed. Or mavbe not the fast-food promotions for the film are King done by Burger King, w hich urges customers to sa e the . chickens bv eatma hamburgers.
