Key Highlights
- Billed under the Family Matinee section of the Sundance Film Festival, today’s World Premiere of Fing!, an Australian/British production, proves to be one of the unexpected delights of the fest so far.
- Based on British entertainer and Children’s book author David Walliams’ best seller, Fing!
- flies firmly in the tradition of whimsical and beloved family movies like Paddington, Nanny McPhee, Stuart Little, Peter Rabbit, and an offbeat favorite of mine, Hunt For The Wilderpeople, the latter directed by Taika Waititi who actually takes on the bumbling villain role in this one.
