English Summary:

Babe is a 1995 Australian-American comedy-drama film directed by Chris Noonan, produced by George Miller, and written by both. It is an adaptation of Dick King-Smith's 1983 novel The Sheep-Pig, also known as Babe: The Gallant Pig in the US, which tells the story of a pig raised as livestock who wants to do the work of a sheepdog. The main animal characters are played by a combination of real and animatronic pigs and Border Collies.

Babe, an orphaned piglet, is chosen for a "guess the weight" contest at a county fair. The winning farmer, Arthur Hoggett, brings him home and allows him to stay with a Border Collie named Fly, her mate Rex and their puppies, in the barn.

A duck named Ferdinand, who crows as roosters are said to every morning to wake people so he will be considered useful and be spared from being eaten, persuades Babe to help him destroy the alarm clock that threatens his mission. Despite succeeding in this, they wake Duchess, the Hoggetts' cat, and in the confusion accidentally destroy the living room. Rex sternly instructs Babe to stay away from Ferdinand (now a fugitive) and the house. Sometime later, when Fly's puppies are put up for sale, Babe asks if he can call her "Mom".

 

Babe: Pig in the City is a 1998 Australian-American comedy-drama film and the sequel to the 1995 film Babe. It is co-written, produced and directed by George Miller, who co-wrote and produced the original film. Most of the actors from the first film reappeared as their respective roles, including James Cromwell, Miriam Margolyes, Hugo Weaving, Danny Mann, Roscoe Lee Browne and Magda Szubanski with newcomers featuring Glenne Headly, Steven Wright, James Cosmo, Myles Jeffrey, and Mickey Rooney. However, most of them have only brief appearances, as the story focuses on the journey of Babe and the farmer's wife Esme in the fictional city of Metropolis and Elizabeth Daily replaces Christine Cavanaugh as Babe.

Months after the events of the first film, Babe and his master Arthur Hoggett are given a welcome home parade after Babe's success as a "sheepdog". One day, Babe inadvertently causes an accident and Arthur ends up in a hospital. Esme is unsuccessful tending the farm alone. Soon, two men from the bank arrive to inform Esme that she and Arthur have not paid their rent on time, and they will soon be evicted at the end of the month. Esme locates a letter from a fan saying that if she enters Babe in a sheepdog herding contest, held at a fair far away, she will win a large amount of money. She decides to enter Babe and they leave the farm together.

 

German Summary:

Ein schweinchen namens Babe  ...die wundersamste, originellste und liebevollste Komödie seit langem. Dies ist die Geschichte eines unvoreingenommenen Herzens, das unser Tal für immer veränderte. So beginnt " Ein Schweinchen namens Babe", ein Film über eine kleine Farm voller unvergeßlicher Charaktere. Hier leben die Hirtenhündin Fly, Ferdinand, der quakende Enterich, das betagte Schaf Maa und ein Trio singender Mäuse. In der Welt von Bauer Hoggetts Farm hat jedes Tier seinen angestammten Platz, bis das Waisenschweinchen Babe dort ankommt und alles auf den Kopf stellt. Von Fly unter die Fittiche genommen, glaubt Babe schon bald, auch ein Hirtenhund sein zu können. Farmer Hoggett spürt, daß Babe etwas Besonderes ist und meldet es, obwohl ihn jeder für verrückt hält, bei der nationalen Hirtenhund-Meisterschaft an. Und in dem Moment, in dem alle am lautesten über die beiden lachen, betreten der hochgewachsene Farmer und das kleine, krummbeinige Schweinchen die Arena und versetzen die Welt in atemloses Staunen.

 

Schweinchen Babe in der großen Stadt (Originaltitel: Babe: Pig in the City) ist eine australische Filmkomödie von George Miller aus dem Jahr 1998. Sie ist eine Fortsetzung des Films Ein Schweinchen namens Babe aus dem Jahr 1995 und basiert auf den Figuren von Dick King-Smith.

 

Nach dem von Babe gewonnenen Wettbewerb erhält Arthur Hoggett zahlreiche lukrative Angebote für Auftritte mit dem Schwein, doch aus ungenannten Gründen lehnt er alle ab.

Als Folge eines von Babe verschuldeten Unfalls wird der Farmer so schwer verletzt, dass seine Frau Esme die Farm übernehmen muss. Esme und Babe begeben sich in eine Großstadt, um Geld aufzutreiben. Dort wird Esme verdächtigt, eine Drogenhändlerin zu sein, und nach einer Rangelei mit Punks von der Polizei verhaftet. Esme und Babe verpassen ihren Flug für die Weiterreise und kommen vorerst in einem Hotel unter, das einer tierliebenden Frau gehört. Die Hotelbesitzerin hat aus Mitleid viele der Straßentiere der Stadt in ihrem Hotel aufgenommen und hält sie aus Angst vor Beschwerden der Nachbarn beim Gewerbeaufsichtsamt im Haus versteckt.

Durch einen weiteren Unfall von Babe werden Esme und die Besitzerin gezwungen zu gehen, und so bleiben an die 200 Straßentiere allein in dem Hotel zurück. Die hungernden Tiere schreien nach Essen und werden damit von verärgerten Nachbarn entdeckt, die wiederum sofort die Polizei alarmieren. Die Tiere werden alle in ein Tierheim gebracht, und nur Babe und zwei seiner tierischen Freunde können entkommen. Babe rettet die Tiere aus ihrer Gefangenschaft, und alle Tiere kommen auf der Farm unter. Auch die ehemalige Hotelbesitzerin lebt von da an auf der Farm.
