FILM NOTES

DreamWorks Animation released Shrek in May 2001, marking a turning point for computer-animated feature films and signaling a genuine rival to Disney's dominance in family entertainment. Directed by Andrew Adamson and Vicky Jenson, the film earned the first-ever Academy Award for Best Animated Feature and became a defining cultural touchstone of the early 2000s.

This cell, titled Fiona, Shrek and Donkey, captures three consecutive frames from a single shot of the central trio mid-journey through a forested and rocky outdoor setting. Shrek voiced by Mike Myers, Princess Fiona voiced by Cameron Diaz, and Donkey voiced by Eddie Murphy appear together, offering collectors a rare multi-character moment drawn from the heart of the film's adventure.
