"Let the wild rumpus start!" Nine-year-old Max runs away

realm of gigantic fuzzy monsters--but being king may not be
as carefree as it looks! Filmmaker Spike Jonze directs a
magical, visually astonishing film version of Maurice
Sendak's celebrated children's classic, starring an amazing
cast of screen veterans and featuring young Max Records in a
fierce and sensitive performance as Max.
