The article published on the website of the magazine «
The Empire» on 3 April 2013 is headlined Tim Burton Directing Big Eyes. The
article reports about new movie Big Eyes, which will direct by Tim Burton.
To read this article it’s necessary to emphasize that Big
Eyes, which the writers scripted years ago, chronicles the story of Walter and
Margaret Keane who became known in the 1950s and 60s for crafting one of the
first mass-marketed art sensations via slightly creepy paintings of large-eyed
people. The works were sold in petrol stations and small stores around the
country.
Then it’s necessary to note that Walter became known
for the paintings, as he parlayed his claims that he created them into TV
talk-show stardom. But in reality, it was Margaret who did the work. When the
couple split and she tried to get her share of the profits, he painted her as
an eccentric and the whole argument went to court. The judge solved the matter
by having two easels brought into the courtroom and ordering the pair to get
painting. Walter claimed he had a sore arm while Margaret produced an example
of her art and ultimately won the case.
It was revealed that Karaszewski and Alexander have
been trying to get this one on its feet for ages, looking to direct it
themselves and most recently hiring Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Reynolds for the
leads. Burton was attached then, albeit only as a producer, but now he’s in the
big chair with The Weinstein Company making a deal to finance and distribute
the results. It might not be quite the way the writers wanted it to work, but
at least it’ll finally reach screens.
The authors draws to conclusion that this movie will
be good, because of Burton, who worked with the pair on Ed Wood, most recently
brought us Frankenweenie. He’s also developing a new take on Pinocchio and an
adaptation of Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children.
To my mind, this movie may be very interesting. I like
Tim Burton’s works that’s why I am pleased to watch this project, when it will
be finish.
