The
Cat in The Hat soundtrack features original music
composed by David Newman as well as "Fun, Fun, Fun" and
"The Clean-Up Song" written by the Tony Award winning
songwriting pair from Hairspray, Marc Shaiman and Scott Whittman,
performed on-screen by Mike Myers.
The album also inlcudes a new version of the Beatles classic "Getting
Better" performed by Smash Mouth. This is a brand-new, exclusive
track available only on our soundtrack.
The
Cat in The Hat by Dr. Seuss was first published in 1957 and
remains one of the Top 10 best-selling hardcover books of all time.
Myers stars as the mischievous feline visitor in the stove-pipe
hat who shows two children that "it's fun to have fun but you
have to know how." Dakota Fanning and Spencer Breslin portray
the kids who are witness to the Cat's particular brand of anarchy
and stylised, gravity-defying fun.

Conrad and Sally Walden (Spencer Breslin and
Dakot Fanning) are home alone with their pet fish. It is raining
outside, and there is nothing to do. Until The Cat in the Hat (Mike
Myers) walks in the front door. He introduces them to their imagination,
and at first it's all fun and games, until things get out of hand,
and The Cat must go, go, go, before their parents get back.

The Cat in The Hat by Dr. Seuss was
first published in 1957 and remains one of the Top 10 best-selling

visitor in the stove-pipe hat who shows two children that "it's
fun to have fun but you have to know how." Dakota Fanning and
Spencer Breslin portray the kids who are witness to the Cat's particular
brand of anarchy and stylised, gravity-defying fun.
Kelly Preston stars as their mother and Alec Baldwin plays next-door
neighbour Lawrence Quinn who fancies himself the kids' future stepfather,
much to their dismay. Sean Hayes (Will and Grace) gives a vocal
performance as the Fish, a character who deems himself the voice
of reason when the Cat takes over the house. Bo Welch, an Oscar(R)-nominated
film production designer, makes his debut as a film director with
The Cat in the Hat. He has previously directed for television with
credits including episodes of The Tick and Secret Agent
Man. His production design credits include such diverse films
as A Little Princess and Men in Black; both of which
brought him Academy Award(R) nominations, as well as Men in Black
2, The Birdcage, Batman Returns, Beetlejuice
and Edward Scissorhands.
Brian Grazer has been making movies and television programs for
more than 20 years. As both a writer and producer, he has been personally
nominated for three Academy Awards(R), and in 2002 he won the Best
Picture Oscar(R) for A Beautiful Mind. In addition to winning
three other Academy Awards(R), A Beautiful Mind also won
four Golden Globe Awards (including Best Motion Picture Drama) and
earned Grazer the first annual Awareness Award from the National
Mental Health Awareness Campaign.
Over the years, Grazer's films and TV shows have been nominated
for a total of 39 Oscars(R) and 17 Emmys(R). At the same time, his
movies have generated more than $10.5 billion in world-wide theatrical,
music, and video grosses. Reflecting this combination of commercial
and artistic achievement, the Producers Guild of America honoured
Grazer with the David O. Selznick Lifetime Achievement Award in
2001. His accomplishments have also been recognised by the Hollywood
Chamber of Commerce, which in 1998 added Grazer to the short list
of producers with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
In addition to A Beautiful Mind, Grazer's films include Apollo
13, for which Grazer won the Producers Guild's Daryl F. Zanuck
Motion Picture Producer of the Year Award as well as an Oscar(R)
nomination for Best Picture of 1995, and Splash, which he
co-wrote as well as produced and for which he received an Oscar(R)
nomination for Best Original Screenplay of 1986. Among his other
films are The Grinch; Nutty Professor; Liar, Liar;
Ransom; My Girl; Backdraft; Kindergarten
Cop; Parenthood; Clean and Sober; and Spies
Like Us. His most recent film is Blue Crush; his upcoming
film projects include 8 Mile and Intolerable Cruelty.
The Cat In The Hat is the highly anticipated live-action feature
film adaptation of the beloved literary classic starring Mike Myers,
in the title role. A Universal Pictures/DreamWorks Pictures/Imagine
Entertainment presentation scheduled for release in November 2003,
the film is being produced by Academy Award(R) winner Brian Grazer
and directed by Oscar(R)-nominated Bo Welch from a screenplay by
Alec Berg, David Mandel and Jeff Schaffer.
