Les mercredis du cinéma - Kelly Lambiel
«You, the crippled cowboy, have given me back my childhood soul.»
The word of V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton), when he discovers that the baby elephant he's just bought can fly. This is the villain that, as is often the case with Disney, we love to hate. Just as well, we'd almost take the words out of his mouth. Almost? Indeed, with this new film, Tim Burton was eagerly awaited. His last films had been poorly received by the critics. So, thanks to Dumbo, is the eponymous re-adaptation of the famous 1940s cartoon (yes, I'm telling you!) a return to grace, or does it confirm the opinions of those who claim that the golden age of his career is now over?
