Favorite Cinema Moments: Part 45

Babe.

This is a hit-or-miss movie for many people as well. I enjoy watching it. I don't mind the episodic children's book feeling of the movie. Even though it's very kid-friendly, I think it's very well done. Of course the effects get dated over time, but it doesn't ruin the charm for me.
This is the moment where Farmer Hoggett (James Cromwell) actually sings and dances to get the sick pig, Babe, to start eating again. I recently found out that the song is actually a classical piece from the Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint-Saëns who's work is also used in Days of Heaven, Visions of Light, and Fantasia 2000. Good stuff.
