Movie Overview
Based on the series of children’s books by Michael Bond,
Paddington tells the story about a young Peruvian bear who travels from his
native rainforest in South America to London, where he attempts to find himself
a new family to live with. When Paddington (Whishaw) arrives in London
(after loses most of his family in a
natural disaster back in Peru), he is initially lost in a sea of
Bollywood Movie Sunny Leone,s Movie Ek Paheli Leelastrangers and
of course, a bit overwhelmed by the whole bright lights, big city, vibe.
Nevertheless, he does have a taste for all things British (with an account to
match and a love for marmalade too) and stoically decides to wait it out at
Paddington Station until hopefully, he will meet a family which will let him
part of the family unit. As a helpful indicator of his intentions, he sports a
sign around his neck that reads: please look after this bear. Thank you. Soon,
Mr. Brown (Bonneville), Mrs. Brown (Hawkins) and their kids notice him and
decide to take him home. “He can stay”, says Mr. Brown in the Browns comfortable
loading's, Mrs. Bird (Walters) manages the house in her own
eccentric-but-efficient way. Mrs. Brown learns that Paddington –a name she
coined for him back at the train station- is quite literally, a rare bear and
helps him to connect with his past in order to give him emotional grounding.
Along the way, Millicent the taxidermist (Kidman) finds out about Paddington’s
rare breed and makes it her mission to turn him into her latest specimen,
stuffed with sawdust and preserved for posterity. The Browns and of course
Paddington, will avoid her at all costs.
