#1220 Goodbye Christopher Robin

Beitrag von Kasi Mir »

Simon Curtis' ("Woman in Gold", "My Week with Marilyn") not-quite-biopic "Goodbye Christopher Robin" is only the first of two films containing that name in its title this year; a few months from now, Disney will release "Christopher Robin", a live-action sequel where the literary version of Robin will meet its childhood friends Winnie, Tigger etc. again. Tonight's film focused on the real-life boy C.R. Milne, son of A.A. Milne who wrote the four original "Winnie the Pooh" books in the 1920s, which inadvertedly turned his son famous because he was featured in the stories. As the movie suggests, the fame became a burden for the real Christopher thoughout his life - but contrary to the film, the relationship with his parents remained strained and distant. You can find more information on that in articles from the New York Times, the Express and the Sydney Morning Herald. The screenplay that took those liberties was penned by Frank Cottrell Boyce, who previously wrote four sneak movies ("Hilary and Jackie", "Code 46", "Millions", and most recently "The Railway Man"), and TV producer Simon Vaughan, whose only previous writing credit curiously enough was for "A Bear Named Winnie", starring Michael Fassbender and telling the story of the real-life bear who became the namesake for Milne's creation.

The trailer for "Goodbye Christopher Robin" looks like this:



What did you think of the film? How did you like the performances by Domhnall Gleeson, Margot Robbie, Kelly Macdonald, and the young Will Tilston in his first role? Did you enjoy the story, and the camera work? You don't have to make a whole children's book out of your experience - just write down your thoughts as a reply to this article. 8-)

Zu Beginn dachte ich erst, "oh nö, schon wieder so ein Langweiler" aber weit gefhelt, die Hintergrundgeschichte über das beliebteste Kinderbuches der Welt war sehr informativ und mi9t sehr viel Charme erzählt und auch gut gespielt, zum Glück war das Ende nicht so, wie man zuerst befürchten musste, wenn man die Fakten nicht kennt und somit war es fast doch ein feel.good movie - für mich eine 1- wert.
