The Little Prince Page #2

Synopsis: From Mark Osborne comes the first-ever animated feature film adaptation of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's iconic masterpiece, The Little Prince. At the heart of it all is The Little Girl, who's being prepared by her mother for the very grown-up world in which they live - only to be interrupted by her eccentric, kind-hearted neighbor, The Aviator. The Aviator introduces his new friend to an extraordinary world where anything is possible. A world that he himself was initiated into long ago by The Little Prince. It's here that The Little Girl's magical and emotional journey into her own imagination - and into the universe of The Little Prince - begins. And it's where The Little Girl rediscovers her childhood and learns that ultimately, it's human connections that matter most, and that what's truly essential can only be seen with the heart.

- I have to call the insurance.

- Done.

- And file a police report.

- Done. In duplicate.

- Photo documentation?

- Inside and outside.

The lighting could have been better.

It's not so bad.

I'll call a contractor in the morning

and we'll forget the old man even exists.

I've already forgotten him.

Matters of consequence,

let's recap today's recap,

of today's market activity,

with a detailed account...

Numbers of the day.

There are also hundreds of others...

"Once upon a time there was

a little prince who lived on a planet"

"that was scarcely bigger than himself,

and who had need of..."

A friend?

I thought you could use a friend!

No, here I am, up here.

Here! Hi.

I'm sorry.

That's just the beginning of the story.

It's okay. Nobody understands it anyway.

All right, bye-bye.

See you later, maybe.

She made the most frightful noise.

It resounded all over the place.

- Maybe during lunch...

- I can count the pennies.

Once upon a time

there was a little prince

who lived on a planet

that was scarcely bigger than himself,

and who had need of a friend.

"And I lived my life alone

without anyone I could really talk to."

"So I learned to pilot aeroplanes."

I flew more or less all over the world,

until I had an accident

in the Sahara desert.

If you please, draw me a sheep!

If you please, draw me a sheep.

Draw me a sheep!

When a mystery is too over-powering,

one dare not disobey.

Draw? I don't know how to draw.

That doesn't matter.

The first sheep I drew was too sickly.

And the second one,

not to his liking either.

You see yourself

that this is not a sheep.

This is a ram, it has horns.

- And this one was...

- Too old!

I want a sheep

that will live for a long time.

So, I drew this.

The sheep you ask for is inside.

That is exactly the way I wanted it!

Do you think this sheep

will eat a great deal of grass?

Because where I live,

everything is very small.

I'm sure there will be

enough grass for him.

He's a very small sheep.

Not that small. Look!

He's gone to sleep.

Wow.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello!

Hold on. Don't move.

Good.

Here we go.

Wow.

I... I just wanted to give

your drawing back.

You don't like it?

It's not that.

It's not very good.

I think it's nice.

I read the story, too. Attentively.

And I found it quite odd.

Odd?

I mean curious... Or interesting...

I have some issues

with some of the facts.

You have questions?

I don't mean to be rude. Can I?

What? Be rude?

Sure, go ahead. I'm listening.

First of all, what was the kid

doing there in the desert?

It's very strange.

No one can last very long

in a desert without food and water.

Where are his parents?
