Luc Jacquet, the French film-maker who gave us The March of the Penguins, is back with a cutesy, sugary story for children. Like his Penguins romp, it has some tremendous animal scenes, but it is heavily dependent on a continuous voiceover narration: understandable for a nature documentary, but a curious encumbrance for a fiction feature. As before, the voiceover has been completely dubbed over by a Hollywood star for English-language audiences: in the French original, it is Isabelle Carr; but here the voice has been replaced by Kate Winslet, who sounds very wide-eyed and Jackanoryish. It is the story of a dreamy, lonely, flame-haired little moppet (Bertille Nol-Burneau) who lives in the mountainous region of eastern France, and strikes up a magical friendship with a fox. The twee, simpering voiceover is annoying, and what dialogue there is has been badly dubbed.
