Chicken Run with Griffin Newman

The Ritzy and The 90 Minutes or Less Film Festival podcast are delighted to welcome Griffin Newman (Co-host of Blank Check with Griffin and David) to introduce Chicken Run, Aardman’s classic 84-minute-long animation from 2000. 

Ginger is a chicken at the Tweedy Egg Farm, and she’s desperate to escape (despite being held back by her clumsy coop-mates). While the villainous Mrs. Tweedy plots to bake the hens into chicken pies, a cocky American rooster called Rocky flies into the farm. Ginger makes a deal with Rocky: they’ll keep him safe from the circus he escaped from, and he’ll teach the chicks of Tweedy Farm to escape ‘death by pie’ and fly their way to freedom.
