Babe

Babe, an orphaned piglet, is chosen for a guess-the-weight contest at a county fair. After winning the contest, he is taken home by farmer Arthur Hoggett to live with a Border Collie named Fly and her family in the barn.

In his new life, Babe meets a clever duck named Ferdinand. Ferdinand urges Babe to assist him in sabotaging the alarm clock, so he can appear useful and avoid being dinner.

Babe and Ferdinand's plan to sabotage the alarm clock leads to chaos, which wakes Duchess, the Hoggetts' cat. This results in a mishap that ultimately destroys the living room furniture.

As Christmas approaches, Babe's life is at stake as he becomes a potential candidate for Christmas dinner. However, Arthur decides that Babe may instead bring home a prize ham from the next county fair.

On Christmas Day, Babe discovers sheep rustlers threatening the flock and alerts Hoggett. This act earns him the farmer's admiration and respect, and Babe finds a purpose within the farm.

Impressed by Babe's instincts, Hoggett tests his herding abilities with sheep. Supported by Maa, an older ewe, Babe successfully demonstrates his herding knack, but it angers Rex, leading to a confrontation.

The fight between Rex and Hoggett results in injuries to both Fly and Hoggett. As Babe takes over herding responsibilities, he learns the weight of the situation when three dogs attack the sheep.

Babe bravely drives off the attacking dogs, but the aftermath is tragic as Maa is left mortally wounded. When Hoggett arrives, he mistakenly assumes Babe is responsible for the disaster.

Fly, distressed about Babe's fate, communicates with the sheep to uncover the truth about the dog attack. She convinces Hoggett not to harm Babe, revealing the real culprits behind the chaos.

With his wife Esme away, Hoggett enters Babe into a sheep-herding competition, believing in his potential. As a storm brews, Babe learns the harsh truth about pigs and their fate from Duchess.

After pondering the grim reality of being considered food, Babe goes missing, causing havoc among the animals. Fly and Rex finally locate him in a cemetery, and Hoggett brings him home.

Babe’s spirits are lifted when Hoggett offers him a drink from a baby bottle while singing a soothing song. This heartfelt gesture rekindles Babe's hope and belief in Hoggett’s care.

Finally at the sheep-herding competition, Babe must gain the sheep's attention to succeed. Despite doubts from the crowd about entering a pig in the contest, he prepares for his performance.

Rex rushes back to provide Babe with a secret password from the sheep, promising better treatment. This vital communication leads Babe to connect with the sheep effectively during the competition.

Babe impresses everyone with his herding talent and is awarded the highest honor at the competition. Hoggett affectionately acknowledges Babe's achievement, uttering the memorable phrase, 'That'll do, Pig. That'll do.'
