Roald Dahl's Esio Trot (2015)
Mr. Hoppy, a reserved elderly man, secretly adores his neighbor, Mrs. Silver, who lives just below him. Their interactions are friendly, yet he struggles to confess his feelings. Mrs. Silver cherishes her pet tortoise, Alfie, but worries about his slow growth. One day, she laments that despite having him for years, Alfie has only gained a few ounces. Inspired by her wish for a bigger tortoise, Mr. Hoppy devises a clever plan to help Alfie grow and, in turn, hopes to capture Mrs. Silver's heart with his thoughtful gesture.
