| Frankenweenie by Tim Burton |
if you have not watch this heartwarming movie,
From creative genius Tim Burton ("Alice in Wonderland", "The Nightmare Before Christmas") comes "Frankenweenie", a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog, Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life - with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor's fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new "leash on life" can be monstrous.
A stop-motion animated film, "Frankenweenie" was filmed in black and white and rendered in 3D, which elevates the classic style to a whole new experience.
some important Characters~
 |
| Victor & Sparky |
Victor Frankenstein is a clever and industrious 10-year-old boy who is inspired by science. He lives with his parents and dog, Sparky, in the town of New Holland. Victor immerses himself in making films and inventing in his attic workshop. When he loses Sparky, Victor uses scientific ingenuity to bring him back to life.
Sparky is a devoted and playful bull terrier whose sense of curiousity is matched only by his beloved owner, Victor. Sparky enjoys chasing after balls and being the star of Victor's homemade movies. He exudes tons of energy and enthusiasm.
 |
| Elsa |
Elsa Van Helsing is a soulful and somber classmate of Victor. She lives next door to him with her tyrant uncle, Mayor Burgemeister, who forces her to be this year's "Little Dutch Girl" at the town's celebration of Dutch Day. Elsa also has a beloved pet, her poodle Persephone, and truly empathizes with Victor when he loses Sparky.
 |
| Persephone |
Persephone is a perfectly groomed black poodle with an enormously large poof of hair on her head. She is curious and flirtatious with Sparky and fiercely loyal to Elsa, her owner. When Persephone and Sparky first meet in the backyard, the attraction is instantaneous and electrifying.
 |
| Mr. and Mrs. Frankenstein |
Mr. Frankenstein is a travel agent, friendly and social, who likes to dispense roundabout advice to his son. He is proud of Victor's accomplishments, but is concerned he doesn't have any friends other than Sparky. He would prefer his son be more social ad encourages him to join the baseball team. Mr. Frankenstein has a playful ad loving relationship with his wife, Victor's mom.
 |
| Edgar "E" Gore |
Edgar "E" Gore is a needy misfit who doesn't have friends but desperate to be Victor's partner for the science fair. In his attempts to be accepted "E" tends to mess things up and often fails to think before he speaks. Even though "E" promises not to tell Victor's secret, he accidentally spills the beans.
 |
| Mr. Rzykruski |
Mr. Rzykruski is the new science teacher at New Holland Elementary School. He has a thick, Eastern European accent and a unique way of explaining things. He connects with his students; however, parents misunderstand his passionate teaching style. Mr. Rzykruski serves as a mentor and inspiration to Victor, teaching him that science can do both good and bad things and that if a scientist does not put his heart into his experiment, there could be disastrous consequences.
 |
| Mr. Burgemeister |
Mr. Burgemeister is the Frankenstein's next-door neighbour and Mayor of New Holland. A crotchety fuss-bucket, he is fanatical about his garden and can't stand Sparky or anything else that threatens the perfection of his tulips. Mr. Burgemeister also asserts his authority over his niece Elsa Van Helsing by making her the reluctant star of his New Holland Dutch Day celebration.
 |
| Weird Girl |
Weird Girl doesn't fit in well with the other kids in New Holland, but it's easy to see why - she delivers ominous pronouncements in a monotone voice with an unnerving stare. Her constant companion is her fluffy, white cat Mr. Whiskers, whose unblinking gaze matches her own. The other kids give them a wide berth - especially when Weird Girl rambles about Mr. Whiskers' dreams.
