Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is a 2005 stop-motion animated film from Aardman Animations, directed by Nick Park and Steve Box, the first feature-length outing for the inventor Wallace and his silent dog Gromit after a series of short films built the characters' popularity. The plot follows the pair running a humane pest-control business ahead of the village's giant vegetable competition, which is threatened by a mysterious were-rabbit terrorizing the local gardens. The film won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature and is widely regarded as a high point of traditional stop-motion animation at a time when the format was increasingly overshadowed commercially by computer animation.
