Nutcrackers

Nutcrackers

Mary's (Elle Fanning) seemingly dull Christmas is suddenly filled with excitement and adventure following the arrival of her Uncle Albert (Nathan Lane), who gives her a Nutcracker (Shirley Henderson) as a gift. Later that night, Mary dreams that the Nutcracker (called N.C.) comes to life and takes her on a wondrous journey.[2] They discover that the Nazi-like Rat King (John Turturro) has usurped the Nutcracker's kingdom. In the climax of the film, the Nutcracker appears to have been killed, but Mary's tears and declaration of love restore him to life and transforms him into a prince (Charlie Rowe), his true form. The rats are all defeated and overthrown, but now Mary must reluctantly awaken from her dream. Before, she's fully awake by N.C.'s promis that they'll meet again. After she does so, she goes to Uncle Albert's workshop, where she meets his new young neighbor, who is the exact image of the Nutcracker Prince and who asks to be called N.C. The two become close friends, and the last shot of the film shows them ice skating together.
