Tim Burton’s Movie Dark Shadows
Le réalisateur américain, Tim Burton, a créé trois films en 2012, qui plongent le spectateur
dans un monde sombre avec des personnages tout aussi lugubres que décalés. Dark
Shadows raconte l’histoire d’un vampire déchu. Le réalisateur et son acteur fétiche,
Johnny Depp, nous livrent ici leurs impressions quant à leur longue collaboration dans
ce genre cinématographique bien particulier.
Transcript
Sky News Presenter Samantha Simmonds: Now some of Hollywood’s finest are in London this evening
for the premiere of Tim Burton’s latest movie. It’s called Dark Shadows. The film reunites the director with
many of his usual suspects, including his wife, Helena Bonham Carter, and Johnny Depp. It is, in fact,
the eighth time that Depp and Burton have worked together, but the star says he’s far from bored of their
collaborations.
Actor Johnny Depp: Whenever I get the call from Tim, I’m always, you know, surprised and honored, you
know, that he would want me to interpret another character for him. So I don’t know, I don’t... I don’t try and
dissect it, I just consider myself very lucky. He’s one of the only true auteurs, he’s a visionary and he’s a...
I mean, he’s beyond a film maker, he’s an absolute artist to the umpteenth level.
Film Director Tim Burton: Each time feels like it’s the first time so eight times, eight different characters
and each one feels like it’s the first time I’m working with the guy.
