The giraffe’s paradise
An audacious adaptation of the excellent first novel of the Malaussène saga, the film, released on October 16, 2013, is rather faithful to the paradoxical mindset of Daniel Pennac … Still, someone will have to explain to me how this giraffe ended up in this adventure… She wasn’t in the novel! Here’s the trailer.
Funny coincidence: I myself had adapted this novel for the Arscénic Theatre Company, based in La Rochelle, in 2011-2012.
