Wallace & Gromit in The Wrong Trousers [VHS]
Clay-animation master Nick Park deservedly won the 1993 Academy Award for Best Animated Short for this 30-minute masterpiece, in which the good-natured inventor Wallace and his trusty dog, Gromit, return for another grand adventure. It all begins on the morning of Gromit’s birthday, when Wallace gives his beloved pooch the gift of his latest invention–a pair of mechanical “techno-trousers” that can be programmed to take Gromit out for “walkies” while Wallace sits comfortably at home. Gromit’s not exactly thrilled with the new gadget, and things go from bad to worse when Wallace rents a room to a new boarder–a rather suspicious-looking penguin–to offset his rising expenses. As it turns out, the penguin’s a notorious thief, and the amazing techno-trousers provide a foolproof method of pulling off a diamond heist! It’s Gromit’s big opportunity for canine heroics, and The Wrong Trousers turns into one of the funniest, most inventive caper-comedies ever made, with an action-packed climax
