Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016, Tim Burton)

04/04/2024

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is a 2016 film directed by Tim Burton.

The fantastic film is the film adaptation of the 2011 novel Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children written by Ransom Riggs.

Teenager Jake Portman lives in Florida with his family.

On his birthday he receives an old book from his grandfather in which he finds a postcard addressed to Abe from Cairnholm in Wales and signed by Miss Alma Peregrine, the mysterious director of the home for special children, the protagonist of the stories of when he was little.

Once in Cairnholm, Jake discovers that the house of the specials exists, but is reduced to ruins due to a bomb dropped during the Second World War, and that there were no survivors. Exploring the old building he meets an extravagant group of kids: they are Miss Peregrine's special children, who lead him to a cave which is the entrance to their time loop and, once inside, Jake finds himself in 1943 with the children's house still intact.

The boy has return in 2016 and is accompanied to the cave by Emma, for whom he begins to feel affection; here the two come across a wounded Ymbryne in the form of an avocet and unable to transform, who will be subjected to Miss Peregrine's care; it's Miss Avocet.

Jake, however, is followed by John Lamont, an ornithologist present on the island for a few days, who turns out to be capable of crossing the time loop: first he becomes Doctor Golan and finally reveals his true self: it is Barron, whose peculiarity is in fact that hid his white eyes.

Miss Avocet says that Barron and the Hollows attacked several time loops including her own set in January 2016 near Blackpool, killing all the children with the aim of replicating the failed experiment years ago with many more Ymbrine.

Miss Peregrine lived in Miss Avocet's time loop when she was young and can transform into a peregrine falcon.

Miss Avocet is an elderly woman from the early Victorian era in England. She can transform into an avocet.

The film's budget was $110 million.

The film rights to Ransom Riggs' novel where sold to 20th Century Fox in May 2011.

On July 28, 2014, Eva Green was chosen to play the protagonist of the film; Mischa Barton, Lucy Hale and Alison Sudol were also considered. On September 24, 2014, it was announced that Asa Butterfield had been seen for the second lead role as Burton's choice, but that he had not yet been offered the role at that time. On November 5, 2014, Ella Purnell was offered a role and Butterfield was in final negotiations to join the film; it was also reported that Butterfield was offered the male lead role and was the preferred choice. On February 6, 2015, Saamuel L. Jackson was added to the cast to play Mr. Barron, while Butterfield was confirmed for the second lead role. Terence Stamp, Chris O'Dowd, Rupert Everett, KIM Dickens and Judi Dench were announced as cast on March 12, 2015.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016)

In recent years, the projects handed to Tim Burton may have felt right on paper but in execution didn’t suit his filmmaking style at all (looking at you, Dumbo and Alice in Wonderland). Despite these mistakes, we keep coming back. Why? Because when he’s the man for the job, there’s no one better - as Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children demonstrates. This quirky, slightly dark celebration of the weird suits him perfectly.

Jake Portman (Asa Butterfield) travels to a reclusive island on the behest of his recently deceased grandfather. There, he finds a group of “Peculiars”, boys and girls with extraordinary powers, under the guard of Miss Peregrine (Eva Green). Isolated from civilization thanks to a time loop created in 1943, they hide from a world that wouldn’t understand them but mostly, they hide from ghoulish Peculiars named Hollows - eyeball-eating fiends.

After Harry Potter, The Hunger Games and Twilight there was a deluge of Young Adult Novel fantasy/sci-fi adventures, most of which were non-starters. The genre began on a high note (you should see how bad the Twilight knockoffs got) and fell sharply afterwards. This film is one of the few exceptions. It begins with an original premise. There’s a lot of mythology to digest with time loops and different factions of people with superpowers - honestly, it gets a bit confusing towards the end - but on the surface, it’s nice and digestible. Children with strange abilities living under the protection of a teacher that must keep them hidden. A lonely teen who befriends them. Monsters determined to ruin everything. Got it? Now we can examine the characters residing at the school. They’re fun because their abilities are varied and unique. You won't find stand-ins of popular superheroes here. Everyone at the school has something to contribute when the action scenes call for them but you can also see why these children's bizarre skills force them to live in isolation.

The story leans into the weirdness of Miss Peregrine’s home and then splits off into scenes that are either charming and wonderful or frightening and unsettling. The mix endears you to Jake and his new friends. It also makes the danger feel real. People getting their eyeballs eaten makes your skin crawl but it’s such a bizarrely gruesome fate it doesn’t feel like it would be too much for young (but not too young) audiences to handle. Such grisly choices make the story unpredictable. So much of this is so strange it wouldn't matter who it was happening to, you'd just want to see what was next. What are those twins hiding behind their mask? What’s it like living in a time loop? What’s the deal with the eyes, and with Jake’s grandfather? How can you combine all of the children’s mismatched abilities into a fighting force to repel the villains after them? The answers are wildly inventive.

Much to my disappointment, it doesn’t look like we’ll be getting a sequel to Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. At least the picture makes the wise choice to end on a definitive note instead of teasing us something that’ll never come.

I suspect Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children will be the kind of teen-oriented adventure some will absolutely fall in love with because of its quirks. It’s thrilling and a little bit loopy - and I mean that in a good way. (February 14, 2020)

Coeli's Picks: Black, part 2 (Halloween Edition)

(Multiple movies listed left to right)

One Dress a Day Challenge

October: Black Redux

Kiss of the Spider Woman (1985) / Sônia Braga as Leni Lamaison/Marta/Spider Woman

Crimson Peak (2015) / Jessica Chastain as Lady Lucille Sharpe

"I expect others have already jumped on this one, but it's too good not to mention."

Diamonds Are Forever (1971) / Jill St. John as Tiffany Case

Penny Dreadful / Eva Green as Vanessa Ives

"She has several gorgeous black dresses but I'm not sure of episode #s."

Penny Dreadful: City of Angels / Natalie Dormer as Magda (and below)

"I haven't watched Penny Dreadful: City of Angels, but Natalie Dormer as Magda has some great black dresses."

Riverdale (s2e15, "There Will Be Blood") / Madelaine Petsch as Cheryl Blossom

"Cheryl is the character I've referred to as fully aware that she's living in a gothic novel, and embracing it to the hilt. This is her outfit for the reading of her father's will. Such a ludicrous show. I love it so much."

Suspiria (1977) / Joan Bennett as Madame Blanc

"I doubt you'll want to watch Suspiria, the incoherent, bloody, but celebrated Italian horror film, but Joan Bennet as Madame Blanc (head of a dance academy that is also a coven of witches) has a terrific witchy black dress." (Yep, I am a self-admitted total wimp about horror.)

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016) / Eva Green as Miss Peregrine

"I'm not actually certain this one is black - might be a very dark blue? Depends on lighting?" (Note: the costume looks black on my screen. Her hair, on the other hand, does seem to have a touch of blue.)

🔥 Tim Burton (him as a person or his aesthetic, your choice!)

"Beetlejuice" (1988) reminds me a lot of another film I watched recently; "Tombstone" (1993). Sold by an aesthetic and a FANTASTIC performance from a side character, audiences were conned into loving a mediocre film. I'm not Lindsey Ellis, so don't expect me to talk about the cartoon.

"Batman" (1989) and its sequel is proof that Burton will not be giving up his aesthetic for God or money. Gotham is heavily disconnected from both the film and its source material, with little reason other than its director. There's a reason no one calls these "Keaton's Batmans," they call them "Burton's Batmans." Jack Nicholson is great as The Joker, but that's no hot take. The hot take is that Devito is too horny as The Penguin, and it makes me uncomfortable for a film that's already so sexual.

"Edward Scissorhands" (1990) is a bitter, bitter film where artist finally meets muse. Not, like, in the plot, but in the production. Depp and Burton were made for eachother... or at least that's what I'm supposed to think. This movie's just too messy, however, and can't decide where its focal point lies and leaves me wishing I had just watched "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (2000) instead.

"Sleepy Hollow" (1999) leaves me, a fan of the original text, I know that's probably a weird thing to say, miffed, even if understanding. Outside of some pacing issues, it's a bold reimagining that feels like Burton attempting to get out of his comfort zone... but I just didn't need this story to be turned into an homage to B-horror. Go watch that Disney short, eh?

"Big Fish" (2003) is his best film. I am hardly qualified to speak on it, and even if I did, I would cry. So, you know, just go watch that shit.

"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (2005) is destined to be compared to "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory" (1971), and why wouldn't it? In thirty-four years since the making of the original, not a single person worth listening to said "i need this done right," including Burton himself, which is why he tries to add so much, but no amount of additions changes the fact that he casted his muse instead of someone who could, you know, act like Wonka? So, you know, destined for failure and to be loved by everyone who won't watch movies made before 1987.

"Corpse Bride" (2005) is one of only two claymation films that Burton would actually direct, and he uses this time to steal a Jewish story and make it less Jewish. I don't like the ending or the songs and it feels like it could be cut in half and achieve the same effect.

"Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street" (2007) literally doesn't have the iconic opening number from the stage play??? Overall, there's rarely a pairing of source material and director that works as well as this one... If only I enjoyed the source material, eh? So dark, so bitter, so edgy, so... nothing. I never think about this movie. When I do, I think of Mrs. Lovett's dream sequence and remember the good old days of "Big Fish" (2003) when Burton liked to use color.

"Alice in Wonderland" (2010) is one of my guiltiest pleasures in all of film. It is the reason why every time Disney announces a live-action remake, my ears perk up. If all of them were as wild, unhinged, original, creative, and inspired as this one... Well, I think Disney might not be fucking bleeding money right now. No one ever even mentions that it's a sequel to the original animated film. A SEQUEL, not a remake. Sometime movie-goers surprise me with how little they think.

"Frankenweenie" (2012) blows. I don't care how unique it is, I do not like it.

"Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" (2016) is one of the funniest remnants of the teen dystopia genre. Like, it hardly applies, but is trying SO HARD that it's unbelievable. Also, props to Mr. "Black People Aren't My Aesthetic" for casting Samuel L. Jackson as a dude who eats white babies. (I do not mean that.) Seriously, this is proof that Burton, as a modern director, should no longer be taken seriously.

"Dumbo" (2019) is AAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAAAAHAHAHAHA I FUCKING HATE THIS DUDE HOLY SHIT

If I didn't mention, I haven't seen it. Yes, I know I skipped some big ones. I may watch them one day, but I am in no rush.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016)

[twistedoverbloat]

Quick idea: on the full month of halloween season all the state yuus got permission to organize two outdoor theaters one for people who like gory horror movies on the other side of the campus for those who come with children or families can watch a halloween film appropriate for the little ones

(Adults and teenagers horror movie choices: Conjuring series, AVP: Alien vs Predator series, Jason vs Freddy, Michael myers films, IT Chapters 1-2 ((2017-2019)) films)

Tickets 10.00$ per person, halloween themed snacks and popcorn 6.00$ per person, themed drinks and sodas 3.00$ per person

(Children, preteens and family movie choices: Hotel Transylvania series, ghostbusters((2016)), Addams family double feature((2019-2021)), miss peregrine’s home for peculiar children)

Tickets: adult 10.00$ kids: 5.00$, snacks and popcorn 5.00$ per person, drinks and sodas 3.00$ per person

This movie idea became so popular to the public and made a lot lot LOOOOT of money everyone and even the teachers, students, dorm leaders and vice leaders, headmaster ask if they have some films form their world for any holidays

Wonder what would be everyone favorite kind of movies that they like of those two separate outdoor theaters???

I wanna say that

Heartslubyul probably likes the kids more since Riddle get's to live his childhood by watching kids movies, the other's don't really mind.

Savanaclaw likes the adults/teens more sine they think the kids is a little bit boring, Leona likes the psychological horror movies.

Octavinelle, which Azul is ripping his hair out since he didn't think of this in the first place. I feel like they are a mix of both kids and adults/teens.

Scarabia is all kids movies since Kalim loved the ones about learning lessons.

Pomefiore I wanna say kids movies, since I wanna think Rook would be the only one to enjoy it. Vil and Rook loves the Addams and Epel likes the country Disney movies.

Ignihyde it's kids movies since Idia finds them comforting and Ortho likes watching them.

Diasomnia, just like Octavinelle it's both but leaning to Horror.

[eldritch-spouse]

This is the otter anon coming to tell you Breg looks like The Hollows from Tim Burton’s 2016 film adaptation of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.

They eat the eyes of supernatural humans in order to main twin a human appearance.

It's not the first time I've been told that. In fact, the first person that mentioned it to me got me to watch a couple of sections.

They're really hot though, I like them a lot.
