Like the London Film Festival, Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr Fox is a mix of British grit and American glamour.
The movie was made in England using old-fashioned stop-motion animation, and has a voice cast led by George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Bill Murray.
Clooney, Murray and Jason Schwartzman brought a dose of Hollywood to Leicester Square last week with the film's world premiere at the 53rd annual London festival.
The actors signed autographs as hundreds of fans and one or two anti-fox hunting protesters gathered outside the movie theatre.
Anderson and co-writer Noah Baumbach adapted Roald Dahl's book about the battle between a chicken-stealing fox and evil farmers Boggis, Bunce and Bean.
The movie, from the director of Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums, retains the book's English setting and was made at London's Three Mills Studios but the animal heroes speak with American accents.
"I feel like we were better writing American voices," Anderson said. "So we decided that we would make all the animals American, and the humans would be British."
The film's British performers include Michael Gambon as the villainous Bean, and former Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker as the farmers' musical sidekick.
l Fantastic Mr Fox is released in Bahrain next month.
