The mad geniuses behind the Despicable Me and Minions series have adapted Dr. Seuss’ beloved holiday classic. Thank you Chris Meledandri '81 for helping us for helping us celebrate Dartmouth's Homecoming in style!
Academy Award nominee Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock) voices the infamous Grinch, who lives a solitary existence inside a cave on Mount Crumpet with his loyal dog, Max. His main source of aggravation comes during Christmastime, when his neighbors in Who-ville celebrate the holidays with a bang. When the Whos decide to make Christmas bigger and brighter, the disgruntled Grinch realizes there is one way to gain peace and quiet. With help from Max, the Green Grump hatches a scheme to pose as Santa Claus, steal Christmas and silence the Whos' holiday cheer once and for all.
Funny, heartwarming and visually stunning, The Grinch is a universal story about the spirit of Christmas and the indomitable power of optimism.
