Synopsis
Shrek
It ain't easy bein' green -- especially if you're a likable (albeit smelly) ogre named Shrek. On a mission to retrieve a gorgeous princess from the clutches of a fire-breathing dragon, Shrek teams up with an unlikely compatriot -- a wisecracking donkey.
The Star
A small but brave donkey and his animal friends become the unsung heroes of the greatest story ever told: the first Christmas.
