The Farm-Animals' Point of View, and Pig-Liberation
If you love movies that portray anthropomorphized animals, or if you are one of those who think that pigs have been unfairly portrayed negatively, this one is for you. The farm animals speak to each other. The cat and dogs realize their value. The duck and pig are concerned that they have no role other than that of being eaten by humans.So the duck and pig each try nontraditional roles: The duck preempts the rooster in waking everybody up, and the pig makes friends with the sheep and makes them obey the pig's requests (not commands). Fearing that the "mechanical rooster" makes the duck superfluous, and liable to be eaten for a meal, the duck gets the pig to cooperate with him in the removal of the alarm clock from the farmer's house.The farmer gets to appreciate the pig more and more. The pig drives off a wolf attack on the sheep. The farmer decides to enter the pig in a sheep-dog contest, as there is nothing in the rules that explicitly says that the sheep-herding animal must necessarily be a dog. As he and the pig enter the field, the crowd roars in laughter and derision, thinking that he must be stark-raving mad, or some kind of practical joker. The farmer's wife, watching on television, faints from embarrassment. But the heroic pig has other ideas...
