Description
Double bill of family comedies based on the popular children's books written by Michael Bond. In 'Paddington' (2014) a young Peruvian bear (voice of Ben Whishaw) grows up dreaming of a life in London, having been influenced by his aunt who once met an explorer from England. When an earthquake leaves his home destroyed, his aunt smuggles him onto a ship headed for the English capital.
He winds up in London's Paddington Station, lost and alone, until he meets Mr Brown (Hugh Bonneville) and his family, who decide to look after him while he searches for his aunt's old acquaintance. However, the bear finds himself in danger when taxidermist Millicent (Nicole Kidman) attempts to get her hands on him for her museum collection. In 'Paddington 2' (2017), now settled in London and living with the Brown family in Windsor Gardens, Peruvian bear Paddington has begun building a reputation as an upstanding member of his new community.
After spotting a unique pop-up book which he thinks will be a perfect present for his Aunt Lucy (Imelda Staunton)'s 100th birthday, Paddington sets out to complete a number of odd jobs in an attempt to raise enough money to buy it. However, when the book is suddenly stolen, Paddington and the rest of the Brown family must work together in order to catch the thief and recover the book before Aunt Lucy's big day comes around.
