Wilbur the pig is scared of the end of the season, because he knows that come that time, he will end up on the dinner table. He hatches a plan with Charlotte, a spider that lives in his pen, to ensure that this will never happen.
Editor's Verdict
"The primary conflict of Charlotte's Web revolves around saving Wilbur from the butcher, which occurs over the harvest season and into the spring/summer when Charlotte lays her eggs. The detected 'Holiday Release' only refers to the film's theatrical distribution window, not the narrative setting. There are no meaningful narrative elements tied to Christmas."
