Children's animated adventure featuring an all-star voice cast including Matthew Broderick, Sigourney Weaver and Dustin Hoffman. The film tells the tale of Despereaux Tilling (Broderick), a misfit mouse in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea (Emma Watson), a rat called Roscuro (Hoffman) who lives in the darkness but covets a world filled with light, and Miggery Sow (Tracey Ullman), a slow-witted serving girl with cauliflower ears who harbours one simple, but utterly impossible, wish. The unlikely trio embark on an adventure-filled journey that takes them down into a horrible dungeon, up into a glittering castle, and into a circle of friendship that will never be broken.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. The Tale Of Despereaux tells the story of a plucky little mouse with enormous ears but an even bigger heart. Obsessed with stories of chivalrous knights, Despereaux is banished to the dungeon by his fellow rodents for speaking to a human princess, leading to an adventure of epic proportions! Once upon a time... ...there was a brave and virtuous mouse with comically oversized ears who dreamt of becoming a knight. Banished from his home for having such lofty ambitions, Despereaux set off on an amazing adventure with his good-hearted rat friend Roscuro that eventually led him, at long last, on a very noble quest to rescue an endangered princess. Set in the far away kingdom of Dor, this magical fable harkens back to a time of honour and chivalry, inspiring fans of all ages to be the best mouse they can be!     Actors Matthew Broderick, Robbie Coltrane, Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Kline, Christohpher Lloyd, William H.
