Stop-motion animated feature following Mark Twain (voice of James Whitmore) as he boards an airship and goes searching for Halley's Comet. Born in November, 1835, just after the comet's perihelion, Twain is determined to 'go out' with it when it next reaches its nearest distance to the sun. He decides the best way to ensure this is to find the comet and crash into it. His travelling companions, Huck Finn (Gary Krug), Tom Sawyer (Chris Ritchie) and Becky Thatcher (Michele Mariana) try to prevent him from going through with his plan. On their journey the adventurers take a look at Twain's philosophy and inspirations.

Please note this is a region B Blu-ray and will require a region B or region free Blu-ray player in order to play.   The Adventures of Mark Twain is an amazing journey of imagination, humour and heart, and a must for fans of Aardman Studios. The film features a series of vignettes extracted from several of Mark Twain's works, built around a plot that features Twain's attempts to keep his "appointment" with Halley's Comet. Tom Sawyer, Becky Thatcher, and Huck Finn stow away with Mark Twain on an incredible journey in Twain's airship. The journey introduces the three friends to a variety of the author's characters from; The Diary of Adam and Eve, Huckleberry Finn, The Mysterious Stranger, The Famous Jumping Frog of Caliverous County and Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven.
