What happens when you get the guy who directed Adaptation and Being John Malkovich to helm an adaptation of a beloved children's book?

Despite initial complaints that it was too dark for a family film, it’s proven to be a favorite among viewers looking for unorthodox family fare. Let’s watch Where the Wild Things Are!
