00:00Here is a cartoon with a difference. The first full-length cartoon film to be made in England.
00:23Produced by the brilliant team of Hallis and Batchelor, it has been acclaimed by New York
00:27and London critics alike. It tells a compelling story for every adult, yet it's assuredly a
00:34film that every child can enjoy. Come and visit Animal Farm, where all animals are equal,
00:43but some are more equal than others. Meet its quite extraordinary inhabitants,
00:50the wise and wishful old Mater. But remember, now and forever, all animals are equal.
01:06Napoleon, a pig of a dictator, squealer of the sly eye and lying tongue.
01:12Long live Napoleon! And Snowball, who is hounded out of his animal kingdom.
01:20You'll love Boxer, who works like a horse. His faithful friends, Benjamin the willing donkey.
01:31Muriel, who acts the goat.
01:35Then of course there's the drunken farmer Jones, who gets his just desserts.
01:40And Wimper, who wangles and barters till it hurts. Remember then to visit Animal Farm.
