The Lorax berates the Once-ler for what he has done, and orders him to leave. Chopping down one tree to make his Thneed, out of the downed tree’s stump popped the Lorax. In his youth, the Once-ler was a young man, who left his mean-spirited family, and set out into the world to make his fortune, and find suitable material to create a product he dubbed ‘a Thneed.’ He soon chanced upon the land of the Truffula Trees, where lived the Barbaloots, Swammy Swans, and the Humming Fish. The Once-ler at first tells Ted to go away, but when Ted claims he wishes to hear about trees, the Once-ler begins to tell him his tale. Ted manages to find his way outside of the city, finding out where much of the city’s waste and contaminants are, and an empty wasteland filled with tree stumps, and broken-down equipment.įollowing a path, he comes across the Once-ler’s Lurkem (aka his home). Ted’s energetic grandmother (Betty White) suggests he speak with the Once-ler (Ed Helms) on the matter. Ted sets out to find the one thing that will win him the affection of Audrey (Taylor Swift), the girl of his dreams, who wishes to see a real tree. Ted Wiggins (Zac Efron), an idealistic 12-year-old boy, lives in “Thneed-Ville”, a walled city that, aside from the citizens, is completely artificial: everything is made of plastic, metal, or synthetics.
To find it he must discover the story of the Lorax, the grumpy yet charming creature who fights to protect his world. A 12-year-old boy searches for the one thing that will enable him to win the affection of the girl of his dreams.
