James and the Giant Peach/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Film

  • Just after escaping the North Pole in the movie, the Centipede takes his task of navigating the peach very seriously, to the point where he tries to fend off sleep in order to do so. And just as he desperately tries to force himself not to doze off, the Grasshopper (who had earlier knocked out one of Centipede's teeth in anger), comes to relieve him of his post. By bringing him a chair and blanket, and playing him off to sleep with his violin. D'awwww...
  • Later on in the movie as Spider was tucking James in for the night, they had a little talk were he admitted that she was his first friend.
