The Wind in the Willows is a 1995 British animation film directed by Dave Unwin and written by Ted Walker, based on the 1908 novel of the same name, a classic of children's literature by Kenneth Grahame. It was produced by the now defunct TVC (Television Cartoons) in London.
The films include live action starting and ending segments with Vanessa Redgrave as the grandmother (who acts as the narrator), Jemima Ffyne as Alexandra, Jordan Hollywood as Emma, Tom Stourton as Edward, and Barry Foster as the boatman, which changes into an animated setting as soon as the grandmother opens the book.
