Plots(1)
The Nutcracker follows nine-year-old Mary (Elle Fanning) whose dull Viennese Christmas is suddenly filled with excitement and adventure following the arrival of her beloved Uncle Albert (Nathan Lane) and his gift of an enchanted nutcracker. On Christmas night, Mary's new friend NC (Charlie Rowe), comes to life and takes her on a wondrous journey into his magical world of fairies, sugarplums, and other Christmas toys which come to life. Soon though, Mary realises that this fantastical kingdom is facing danger from the tyrannical rule of the evil Rat King (John Turturro), and his devious mother (Frances de la Tour). When NC is taken hostage, Mary and her newfound toy friends must uncover the secret of the Rat King to rescue her friend and his kingdom. (G2 Pictures)
