I’ve had the opportunity to see live performances of the Nutcracker on several occasions in my 32 years of life. But I’ve yet to see a film on the big screen, or in 3D for that matter! On November 24th, The Nutcracker in 3D will premiere in theaters across the country.
Here is a brief overview of the film:
From the imagination of acclaimed Russian director Andrei Konchalovsky, the cherished story of The Nutcracker will be brought to life in spectacular 3D this holiday season. THE NUTCRACKER IN 3D 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, The Nutcracker (Charlie Rowe) or “NC,” 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. Mary soon realizes 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 NC and his kingdom. Based on the story that inspired acclaimed Russian composer Piotr Tchaikovsky to create the music for the iconic ballet, the film includes eight exciting new songs penned by Oscar-winning lyricist and librettist Sir Tim Rice.

I remember seeing it for the first time with my mom, grandma, and sisters. We got all dressed up for our fancy night at the ballet. Seeing The Nutcracker is a tradition in my family.
My first memory of watching the Nutcracker was in elementary school & my teacher showing us the video, because we were going to perform a scene from it or our Christmas program. I didn’t like it at first & actually was a bit scared of the nutcracker. Now I love & would love to see it in 3D!

I haven’t been to the nutcracker since I was a little girl and have always wanted to take my little ones. I loved watching the ballerinas on stage. I know that they can handle the movie theater so I’d love to win some tickets for them.
