● “Feature Film” – The Nutcracker and the Four Realms
○ Young Clara needs a magical, one-of-a-kind key to unlock a box that contains a priceless gift left to her by her recently deceased mother. The family goes to a Christmas Eve ball, hosted by the children's godfather and skilled engineer Drosselmeyer. At this ball Clara argues with her father and runs off, finding a golden thread leads her in a Narnia-esque way to another land where she finds the key to the box her mother left to her, but it is taken by a mouse. While clara pursues the mouse, she meets a soldier named Phillip, and the regents who preside over three realms. They tell Clara they are at war with the Land of Amusements which they refer to as "the Fourth Realm" led by the evil mother ginger. One of the regents, The Sugar Plum Fairy, explains that Clara's mother Marie created this world as a young girl, and that she animated everyone with a machine that can turn toys into real people. Sugar Plum says this machine can be used to defend the three realms against Mother Ginger, the Regent of the Fourth Realm, but it needs a key matching the one for Clara's box. Clara and Phillip must now enter a fourth realm to retrieve the key and restore harmony to the unstable land.
○ Film Trivia - IMDB
■ At the beginning of the ballet telling the story of the Four Realms, the conductor mounts the podium and conducts an orchestra appearing in silhouette. This is a tribute to the Disney classic Fantasia (1940), which included a segment based on "The Nutcracker Suite."
■ Marie was name of the heroine of E.T.A. Hoffmann's original Nutcracker tale. She was renamed Clara in Alexandre Dumas' adaptation, on which the ballet was based. This movie's heroine is Clara, daughter of Marie.
■ The Nutcracker's name, Hoffmann, comes from the author of the source story: E.T.A. Hoffmann.
■ Third collaboration between Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen since Pride & Prejudice (2005) and Anna Karenina (2012).
■ Jack Whitehall: as a Harlequin palace guard. Whitehall has a history of publicly stating his love for Disney and his wishes to be cast in any role for their films.
● Comedian Lion King rant (Language warning) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfcApowdmxs
■ The score follows the ballet's story, hinting what is about to happen throughout the whole movie. For example: When Clara first crosses the threshold to Mother Ginger's fair while leading the group of soldiers, the true villain of the film is foreshadowed, as the music in the background is a fragment of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" from "The Nutcracker Suite." and also Towards the end of the movie, Clara's father recognized the song from the egg as the song to which he shared his first dance with Marie. This song is Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's "Pas de Deux," which is played in the ballet when the Nutcracker is dancing with Clara for the first time.
