Movie Review
 

Babe is an Academy Award-winning 1995 Australian film that tells the story of a pig who wants to be a sheep dog. The main animal characters are played by a combination of real and animatronic pigs and Border Collies. The film is based on the book Babe: The Gallant Pig (originally titled The Sheep Pig) by Dick King-Smith, and later spawned a sequel called Babe: Pig in the City.

The talking animal visual effects were done by Rhythm and Hues Studios.

Babe was filmed in Robertson, New South Wales, Australia.

The film was a warmly received family picture, with Time Out London describing it as 'charming, eccentric and very amusing', and Roger Ebert calling it 'a movie made with charm and wit, and unlike some family movies it does not condescend'.

This Nigel Westlake score includes a Grammy-winning song "If I Had Words." The main 'theme' (heard in "If I Had Words") from the film is taken from Saint-Saëns' Symphony No. 3, "Organ."
