October 31, 2002 — Dakota Fanning, who plays Sally in The Cat in the Hat, talked to SCI FI about filming and gave an outline of what the story is about:
Fanning added that the scriptby Alec Berg, David Mandel and Jeff Schafferexpands on the Seuss story. "It is so funny," she said. "It's just like the book. Obviously, there's more [in the script], because the book is short. But there is Thing One and Thing Two, and they're dressed just the same. The Cat has his red bow. There's the boy and the girl and all the houses. You know the trees that hang down? They have those in every yard. The story is just like the book, but you really get to know all the characters, get to know their personalities so much. You realize what kind of people these characters are before the [action] actually starts. Conrad is somebody who doesn't like rules. He's a free person who just does everything. Sally is a more organized person who likes to follow rules. And then The Cat comes into their lives. He tries to make Conrad follow rules a little bit more and tries to make Sally loosen up a little bit."
