New Nutcracker Movie for The Holidays
Enjoy the classic holiday tale in a new way, when you watch the animated Nutcracker and the Magic Flute movie.
Way back in 1816 E.T.A. Hoffmann’s The Nutcracker and the Mouse King fairy tale started it all.
Then in 1892 The Nutcracker ballet premiered, which was loosely based on the fairy tale.
The ballet has been a part of family Christmas traditions ever since, and, of course it has spawned countless new takes on the original story.
This movie is new, but the Russian animation has a retro look that feels appropriate for a heartwarming holiday movie.

Synopsis
The beloved holiday tale gets a thrilling new twist in this dazzling family adventure.
One winter’s night, Marie makes a wish that shrinks her down to pint-sized and brings her toys to life—including a brave nutcracker named George. Marie and her toys follow George through a portal into the Land of Flowers, which has been taken over by a rat queen.
Now, with time running out, they must solve puzzles to find the Magic Flute, break the curse, and free the citizens of this enchanted land.
