There are at least as many animal films in the history of cinema as there are different species – still alive – on our beautiful planet. Insects, reptiles, mammals, pets, all have had their moment of glory or their remarkable scene in a movie of recent decades.
If we limit ourselves only to man’s most faithful friend (to whom we have already dedicated several tests), we could already find several canine characters who have not only had some success on the big screen, but will even have them. Sometimes the honor of giving their name to films.
For example, some may remember the great St. Bernard Beethoven in Brian Levant’s 1992 film about a Newton family who, to fill the void, one day adopt a puppy that has just escaped from the clutches of dog catchers. . Then he was named Beethoven and he grew to 85 kilograms in one day!
Meanwhile, Dr. Warnick, a sinister veterinarian, secretly develops products that require experiments on dogs. And the adorable St. Bernard is on the vet list…
We can also think of another St. Bernard, a much less friendly one, novelist Stephen King’s imaginary Cujo. The dog, which becomes aggressive after being bitten by a bat, attacks those around it, forcing Donna and her son to take refuge in their wrecked car, both captured by the rabid mastiff.
French cinema has also been able to give fictional names to dogs for movie titles. Here again, there is a wide gap between the popular comedy Alain Chabat-Didier and the more strange and confidential Baxter, directed by Jérôme Bolvin, released in 1989.
Today we are going to play not only with dogs, but with different types of animals. We show you a character in a movie scene, it’s up to you to tell us which animal is next!
