Paddington


1h 35m 2015

Brief Synopsis

A young bear in Peru has always dreamed about seeing England. He stows away on a ship and finds himself lost in London's Paddington Station, where he's taken in by the kindly Brown family. Now, armed with only a coat and a suitcase far too small to actually fit everything he manages to cram inside, the little bear in the big hat must brave the thrills and pitfalls of big city life while evading the revenge-crazed taxidermist known as Millicent.
