Description
A magical, warm–hearted family film with universal appeal. Mr. Hoppy, a retired bachelor, harbours a secret passion for his neighbour, the lovely Mrs. Silver. Unfortunately, she lavishes all her affection on another... Alfie, her pet tortoise. Mr. Hoppy yearns to talk to Mrs. Silver, but tongue-tied and shy, his attempts always end in disaster. And when Mr. Pringle, a boorish next-door neighbor, asks Mrs. Silver out on a date, Mr. Hoppy’s world falls apart. Mrs. Silver’s greatest wish is for her tortoise Alfie to grow a little bigger. All is lost for Mr. Hoppy until he has the brightest and most devious of ideas to win his lady’s heart. Starring Academy Award winners Judy Dench and Dustin Hoffman, ESIO TROT is endearing and wonderful for the whole family.
