Further Reading NEWLY RESTORED EDITION – Iron Giant, the directorial debut by Brad Bird was hailed as an instant classic when it arrived in theaters in 1999. Recently remastered and enhanced with the addition of bonus scenes, the heartfelt adventure remains as captivating as ever. In this animated adaptation of Ted Hughes’ Cold War fable, a giant alien robot (Vin Diesel) crash-lands near the small town of Rockwell, Maine, in 1957. Imaginative and head-strong 9-year-old, Hogarth, discovers the robot and soon forms an unlikely friendship with him. But when a paranoid government agent is determined to destroy the iron intruder, Hogarth, the Iron Giant, and their beatnik friend (Harry Connick, Jr) must band together. A captivating animated feature that’s part metal, part magic and all heart.
