Trivialized by many as a pig movie for children, Chris Noonan’s Babe proved many people wrong and captured the hearts and minds of children and adults alike. In 1995 the touching story of a cute talking piglet, who wants to become a sheepdog, hit theaters around the world  and almost instantly went beyond expectations to become a true smash hit, earning over $250 million over the years.
