A SNAIL'S RACE

摘要

"The hallmark of a good underdog story is the focus on a character who wants to do something so impossible, something with the odds so stacked against him that he couldn't succeed, that it's compelling to watch,"says David Soren, director of DreamWorks' latest feature animation, Turbo. "We love to root for the underdog." And, what could be more impossible than a snail racing in the Jndy 500? Who could have thought of such a thing? "The catalyst for the story was my six-year-old son," Soren says. "Even before he could talk, he was obsessed with anything that moves fast. Anything racing related. And, my front yard had a smail problem. That juxtaposition of slow and speed in my home got me thinking about the bones of the story."
