¡Aquí se va a montar un buen pollo!
La señora Tweedy es la dueña de una granja en la que la mayoría de las aves se han resignado a llevar una vida corta e infeliz: viven mientras ponen huevos y, cuando dejan de hacerlo, acaban en la mesa como comida de los domingos. Pero las cosas empiezan a cambiar con la llegada de Rocky, un gallo norteamericano, que mantiene un romance con Ginger, una gallina muy combativa que ha organizado innumerables intentos de fuga para alcanzar una vida mejor.
"Chicken Run," a delightful stop-motion animated film released in 2000, was a collaborative masterpiece brought to life by Aardman Animations and Pathé, hailing from both the United Kingdom and France. Directed by Peter Lord and Nick Park, the film cleverly blends humor, adventure, and a heartwarming narrative, set against the backdrop of a 1950s British countryside. The story follows a group of chickens, led by the determined Ginger, as they plot their escape from the oppressive Tweedy's farm. With its unique claymation style, "Chicken Run" not only showcases Aardman's signature craftsmanship but also pays homage to classic prison break and World War II escape films, making it a standout in animated cinema. The film's protagonist, Ginger, voiced by Julia Sawalha, embodies resilience and hope, rallying her fellow chickens to dream of a life beyond the confines of their coop. When a suave American rooster named Rocky, voiced by Mel Gibson, crash-lands into their lives, he becomes their unlikely savior, promising to teach them how to fly. The dynamic between Ginger and Rocky adds a layer of charm and romance to the narrative, while the ensemble cast of quirky characters, including the ever-optimistic Babs and the inventive Nick and Fetcher, enrich the story with their distinct personalities and comedic timing. "Chicken Run" cleverly satirizes themes of freedom and corporate greed through the lens of the poultry industry. Mrs. Tweedy, the farm's ruthless owner, devises a sinister plan to turn her chickens into profitable chicken pies, adding urgency to the hens' escape plan. The film's meticulous attention to detail, from the intricately designed sets to the expressive movements of the characters, showcases the painstaking effort that went into every frame. The result is a visually stunning and emotionally engaging film that appeals to audiences of all ages. Ultimately, "Chicken Run" is more than just an animated film; it's a testament to the power of teamwork, ingenuity, and the unyielding pursuit of freedom. Its clever plot, memorable characters, and groundbreaking animation have cemented its place as a beloved classic in the world of cinema. Aardman and Pathé's collaboration resulted in a timeless tale that continues to inspire and entertain, proving that even the most unlikely heroes can achieve the impossible when they work together.
