Tom and Jerry Meet Madeline

Tom and Jerry Meet Madeline is an upcoming movie based on the Madeline book series by Ludwig Belmelmans and Frankenstein: A Monstrous Parody by Rick Walton.



Synopsis
In an old house in Paris covered with vines, live twelves little girls, and a...cat and a mouse?!

That's right, Tom and Jerry return in a twist on this beloved classic story by Ludwig Belmelmans, Madeline, and with some wild chases, crazy antics and slapstick humor, your favorite famous cat-and-mouse duo will turn Paris upside down along with the smallest one, Madeline!

Plot
"In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines lived twelve little girls in two straight lines. In two straight lines they broke their bread and brushed their teeth and went to bed. They smiled at the good and frowned at the bad and sometimes they were very sad. They left the house at half past nine in two straight lines in rain or shine --the smallest one was Madeline."

"In a creepy old castle all covered in spines, lived twelve ugly monsters in two crooked lines. In two crooked lines they bonked their heads, pulled out their teeth, and wet their beds. They bit the good and gobbled the bad. They even tried to devour your dad. They left the castle each night at nine in crooked lines, they yelled, they whined --the ugliest one was Frankenstein."

The film begins in Paris, 1956. Madeline attends a boarding school with her classmates, Chloe, Anne, Danielle, Janine, Yvette, Nicole, Monique, Ellie, Lulu, Nona and Sylvie, and Miss Clavel, their teacher, Tom Cat and Jerry Mouse, Tuffy the Mouse, Spike the Bulldog, Miss Murphy the cook, Butch Dog and Droopy Dog. She is the only orphan who wishes for a family. They go on daily walks and eat their favorite meal, bread and butter, while Madeline causes mischief for Miss Clavel and the cat and mouse duo, Tom and Jerry spend their days chasing and fighting each other.

One night, Miss Clavel, along with Butch and Droopy, feels that something is not right, so they run up to the girl's bedroom and find Madeline crying in bed while Tom and Jerry sit on the bed next to her trying to comfort her. Miss Clavel dials the hospital, who explains to Miss Clavel that Madeline has appendicitis.

Ten days later, Miss Clavel, the girls, Tom, Jerry, Droopy, Tuffy and Butch visit her in the hospital. Madeline even shows the girls her scar she received when the bad appendix was taken out during surgery. When visiting hours are drawing to a close, Tuffy decides to stay and keep Madeline company since the latter is the only girl who is not afraid of mice.

On their walk one day, Madeline falls into the river Seine and is rescued by a stray dog named Genevieve, but Tom, being a respective cat, is not happy to have Genevieve in the boarding school. When Lord Covington arrives one day for inspection, he tells Miss Clavel and the girls that dogs are not allowed in the school.

A few days later, Madeline and the other little girls discover that they have a new neighbor who happens to be a Spanish ambassador with his wife and his troublesome son, Pepito, who is homeschooled by his "tutor" Leopold. They discover that Pepito is a mean-spirited, naughty little boy who loves to cause mischief and even tries to feed Jerry and Tuffy to his pet snake when he shows the girls his menagerie.

Madeline is informed that her Uncle Horst has come to see her, but Tuffy has a funny feeling that something isn't right since Madeline has no family.
