Tim Burton Quiz: Impossible to recognize these 8 movies!

Tim Burton grew up under the Californian sun of the 60’s, an introverted kid who took refuge in theaters very early with Hammer fantasy films (Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy).

Being very talented at drawing, he started making small animated films and put them together California Institute of the Arts in 1976. His graduation film “Abominable Celery Attack” got him noticed and caught the attention of Disney Studios, who immediately hired him.

Then he worked on films like Taram and the Magic Cauldron or Rox and Rouky, while developing his own projects. But disagreements with the public, who consider his works too dark, are getting bigger and bigger, and Tim Burton decides to put an end to the Disney adventure.

In 1985, he made his first feature film Pee-Wee Big Adventure with comedian Paul Reubens in the title role. Critical and public success is mixed, but this first film marks the meeting with the composer Danny Elfman, the beginning of a long and rich collaboration, who will be able to make the director’s poetic world music for almost everyone. Movies, fashion.

In 1988, Tim Burton enjoys a substantial budget for his next film Beetlejuice, the success of which leads him to an offer from Warner Studios to adapt the Batman hero. By then the director’s career had well and truly begun, and the 90s would prove to be a blessing marked by a fruitful collaboration with actor Johnny Depp (Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, Sleepy Hollow), with whom he would subsequently return for five more films.
