the wind in the willows
The Wind in the Willows
This animated adaptation of Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows is the definitive screen version of the much-loved children's tale.

The film features most of Grahame's beloved animal characters, some of whom occasionally burst into song; specifically Toad (voiced by Only Fools and Horses star David Jason) and his friends Rat, Badger and Mole.

The star of the show is of course the irrepressible Toad, whose obsession with cars steers him into all sorts of mischief.

So, to quote Moley, "Hang spring-cleaning!" This spring at ACMI it's time to mess about in boats.
