Happy Feet (U) + George Miller 101 + Excusive Recorded Introduction by writer John Collee

Family Film Club

A group of young, happy penguins stand together.

As his latest film, Furiosa, hits screens around the world, Family Film Club is revisiting one of George Miller’s greatest hits. 

Mumble isn’t like the other Emperor penguins and just can’t seem to stop dancing! But when his super-moves get him in trouble with the penguin elders, he’s blamed for their fish disappearing and cast out of the colony. 

But that’s where Mumble’s quest really starts – and he will be tested to the very limits on his search for the truth. 

This absolutely stonking musical is a hilarious, action-filled penguin-fest with a voice-cast of dreams (including Hugh Jackman channelling Elvis and Nicole Kidman as Marilyn Monroe). Featuring the voices of: Elijah Wood, Anthony LaPaglia, Hugo Weaving, Robin Williams, Brittany Murphy, Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman. 

We are delighted to have a bespoke recorded introduction from Happy Feet writer John Collee.
