Director: Seth MacFarlane
Genre: Comedy, Fantasy
Released: 2012-06-29

“Ted (2012) is a 2010s United States comedy-fantasy that stages a domestic dilemma about attachment and adult partnership. It frames that conflict through anamorphic wide lenses and motivated practical lighting to balance intimacy with satirical edge. The film uses raunchy visual clarity to convert arrested attachment into a mainstream comic meditation on maturation.”

For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace, who works as a forest ranger, these stories are little more than tall tales... until she meets Pete, a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliott. And from Pete's descriptions, Elliott seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham's stories. With the help of Natalie, an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon.
