Tim Burton 工作室继【圣诞夜惊魂】之后又一部制作的模型动画,叙述孤儿 James 想要逃离姑妈的虐待到遥远的大都市纽约去,然而神秘老人给他的魔法鳄鱼舌却意外散落在庭院里,也因此长了一颗大桃子,James 进入巨桃里认识了六只大昆虫,於是他们结为好伙伴,共同运用智慧努力让桃子飞天渡海,以期能让梦想成真。此故事在美国是非常有名的儿童故事,故本片的卖点不在剧情而是在拍摄技巧,这是迪士尼继【圣诞夜惊魂】后又一利用模型静态拍摄的作品,【圣诞夜惊魂】里的 Jack 特别在本片客串,他扮演凶恶的幽灵船长。
The documentary follows the main stages of Janis Joplin’s life, from her performance at Monterey Pop in 1967 to Woodstock in 1969 and Festival Express in 1970, including interviews with relatives, friends and rock stars of her time. The soundtrack features Janis Joplin’s hits, among which Cry Baby, Mercedes Benz and Piece of My Heart. Amy Berg shows the woman behind the myth, other than the rock&roll icon, unveils a gentle, innocent yet strong woman. Well known as rock icon, the personal story of Janis Joplin is very complex. Janis serves as a narrator, telling us her life through the letters she wrote to her friends, relatives and lovers, leading us in a journey that starts from her childhood.
