TODAY IS: National Pig Day, during which we are called upon to remember that the oinker is one of humanity's most intelligent and most useful domesticated animals (though commemorating porkers as tasty seems not to be within the day's agenda). James Cromwell famously discovers just how helpful a pig can be in 1995's charming BABE, about a little pig who thinks he's a dog and learns to shepherd sheep. Baa ram ewe! [today's movie at IMDb]
