About the Movie
Alvin and the Chipmunks on DVD:
In 1958 "The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)" was introduced, and it became a perennial favorite. The number was supposedly sung by three chipmunks — Alvin, Simon and Theodore — under the direction of a man named Dave Seville. Five decades later comes this feature film where the chipmunks are done by CGI animation and Seville is played by Jason Lee. Although set in the present, the movie nevertheless tells the story of how the chipmunks start out living in a forest, relocate to L.A., meet Seville, become showbiz stars and encounter a new set of problems.
