GIVEAWAY: Ballet Shoes!

7/29/2008 Posted by Admin


Week in Rewind is pleased to offer a giveaway of
Ballet Shoes!


Own it on DVD September 2, 2008!

Thanks to our friends at Koch Vision
for this opportunity!

Official product description:

"Featuring an all-star cast led by Emma Watson (Hermione from Harry Potter), the inspiring and uplifting family drama BALLET SHOES won over audiences of all ages during its UK premiere last Christmas. Now, KOCH Vision brings BALLET SHOES to American audiences for the first time, complete with an exclusive Emma Watson bonus interview.

Continuously in print since first being published in 1936, Streatfeild’s novel – subtitled “A Story of Three Children on the Stage” – has delighted generations of young girls with its message that dreams really do come true. Directed by Sandra Goldbacher (Me Without You, The Governess), this “enchanting[1]” adaptation, produced by Granada for the BBC, also stars Eileen Atkins (Cold Comfort Farm, Gosford Park), Richard Griffiths (The History Boys, Sleepy Hollow), Gemma Jones (Sense and Sensibility, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets), Emilia Fox (The Pianist, Cashback), Victoria Wood (Housewife 49, The Wind and the Willows) and Marc Warren (Wanted, Land of the Blind).

“We three Fossils vow to put our name in the history book, because it is ours, and ours alone…” With these words, three orphans embark on an exhilarating journey that takes them to the heights of the stage, screen and sky. Pauline (Watson), Petrova (Yasmin Paige) and Posy Fossil (Lucy Boynton) are adopted as infants by eccentric explorer Professor Matthew Brown (Richard Griffiths), whom they affectionately call Great Uncle Matthew (or “Gum” for short). When “Gum” goes missing, his niece Sylvia (Emilia Fox) keeps the family together by taking in lodgers and eventually enrolls the girls in the Children's Academy of Dancing and Stage Training. This suits the ambitious Pauline, who longs to act, and Posy, a n atural dancer, but Petrova, who yearns to become an aviator, has her own dreams of soaring the skies. The girls’ lives in show business are filled with triumphs and lessons learned until “Gum’s” surprise return provides the perfect happy ending for them all.

BALLET SHOES is recommended family entertainment by The Dove Foundation, whose mission is to encourage and promote the creation, production, distribution and consumption of wholesome family entertainment. Bonus features include an exclusive 20-minute interview with Emma Watson, deleted scenes, an excerpt from the Ballet Shoes audiobook (read by Elizabeth Sastre) and a limited-edition 9” x 14” mini-poster."
