Synopsis:
Glenn Close returns as the malicious fur-collecting
fashion plate Cruella De Vil in Disney's 102 DALMATIANS,
the highly anticipated sequel to the 1996 live-action
blockbuster. Pursuading the authorities that she has been
successfully rehabilitated, De Vil is released from
prison, seemingly transformed into a law-abiding animal
lover, securely under the influence of Dr. Pavlov's
psychotherapy. Under the watchful eye of her skeptical
probation officer, Chloe Simon (Alice Evans), De Vil comes
to the aid of a failing dog shelter run by Kevin Shepherd
(Ioan Gruffudd). But when Shepherd is promptly arrested
for the theft of dalmatians and Chloe loses her own
dalmatian pups, including the spotless Oddball, De Vil
comes under suspicion once again. Her new alliance with a
French fashion designer, Jean Pierre Le Pelt (Gerard
Depardieu), known for his unusual flare for animal fur,
doesn't help her case. Set in Paris, 102 DALMATIANS is a
lighthearted and humorous tale of animal rights and
identity conflict that climaxes in a riotous frenzy of
hilarious slapstick comedy and heartwarming fantasy.
