Charlotte's Web is a 2006 American live-action/computer-animated feature film based on the popular book of the same name by E. B. White. The classic story of loyalty, trust and sacrifice comes to life in this live action/photo real CGI animated adaptation! Fern (Dakota Fanning) is one of only two living beings who see 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.

White novel about friendship and salvation, has been turned into a beautifully rendered motion picture that's full of warmth, wit and wonder.” The Hollywood Reporter “Charlotte's Web has all the requisite elements that a family film needs to succeed and endure: humor, drama, pathos, and an emotionally satisfying ending.” ReelViews “Remember the peaceful atmosphere of bedtime storytelling? The kind that allows parent and child to take satisfaction in the story, not the teller? That's how Charlotte draws you into its web.” Washington Post “May not be perfect, but it honors its source and captures the key elements – the humor and good sense, as well as the sheer narrative exuberance – that have made White’s book a classic.” The New York Times
