Coraline movie cake
On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. This article is about the 2009 American film. Just as Gaiman was finishing his novella in 2002, he met Selick and invited him to make a film adaptation, as Gaiman was a fan of Selick’s The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach. Coraline Coraline movie cake struggles to adapt to her new life after she and her workaholic parents move from Pontiac, Michigan to the Pink Palace Apartments in Ashland, Oregon.
She meets the landlady’s grandson, Wyborne “Wybie” Lovat, and a stray black cat. That night, a mouse leads Coraline back to the door, now a portal leading to a parallel universe, where Coraline meets her Other Mother and Father, button-eyed doppelgängers of her parents who appear more attentive and caring. She returns home the next morning, where Wybie recounts the disappearance of his great-aunt. Despite the warnings, Coraline visits the Other World twice more. Accompanied by the mute Other Wybie, she is entertained by the dimension’s doppelgängers of her neighbors and meets the cat, who can traverse between the two worlds and speaks in the Other World. On Coraline’s third visit, the Other Mother offers to let her stay in the Other World permanently, in exchange for having buttons sewn over her eyes. There, the ghosts of past victims, including Wybie’s great-aunt, tell Coraline how the Other Mother, whom they call the Beldam, used ragdolls of themselves to spy and lure them to the Other World.
After accepting the Beldam’s offer to sew buttons over their eyes, she robbed them of their souls. The ghosts explain that they can only be freed by retrieving the essences of their souls, which the Beldam has hidden throughout the Other World. Coraline realizes the Beldam has kidnapped her parents, forcing her to return to the Other World. The Beldam agrees and Coraline searches for the souls’ essences, discovering that the Beldam murdered the Other Wybie for his defiance.
