A round-up of some of the very best things to do in the metropolitan city each month…
Movies: Dumbo
At the very end of the month, the new live action Disney film Dumbo hits the screens. With Tim Burton as director, expect this to be a darker and more gothic coloring of the original 1941 animated classic. Although the storyline steers off into a new direction, the film holds the same message and spellbinding magic of the original. Also, catch Arcade Fire’s contribution to the soundtrack – a sublime new rendition of the originally featured lullaby “Baby Mine”.
