What is a synopsis?
Now that you have learnt some vocabulary about movies, read the
following synopsis of the movie Toy Story.
Set in a world where toys come alive, the story of Toy Story focuses on the toys of a little
boy named Andy Davis and centers on his favorite toy, a pull-string doll named Woody,
the leader of a group of toys.
Andys family organize a birthday party one week before his birthday, because they are
planning to move away. Andy spends time with his friends while the toys stage a spying
mission to discover Andys new presents. Woody worries because he is afraid of being
replaced by Andys newest toy, which is a space ranger named Buzz Lightyear. He is a
more impressive toy than Woody, because it wears a space suit with various features such
as wings and transparent helmet, a laser "weapon," and various sound effects. Woody
becomes resentful, especially when he notices that Buzz also gets attention from the
other toys. However, Buzz believes that he is a real space
ranger and wants to return to his home planet, while Woody tries to convince him that
he is just a toy. When Woody and Buzz are suddenly captured in the house of Andys
neighbor Sid Phillips, a toy killer, they have to work together to escape if they want to
return to
Andy's house.
