Watership Down

(1978)Directed by Martin Rosen92 min · PGAdventure, Animation, Drama
“All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and when they catch you, they will kill you... but first they must catch you.”

In the English countryside, a warren of rabbits is told it is under threat, and a small group decides not to wait for proof. Fiver (Richard Briers) and Hazel (John Hurt) lead Bigwig (Michael Graham Cox) and the others out of their home in search of a safe place to settle. Martin Rosen animates the journey in soft, hand-painted landscapes, and lets the danger arrive in the same quiet palette.
