Tim Burton Career Retrospective (2023) | Burbank International Film Festival

BIFF was incredibly thrilled to have Tim Burton and his longtime friend and film composer, Danny Elfman, at our 2023 Awards Gala. With the City of Burbank, we proudly declared September 24th "Tim Burton Day" in recognition of the iconic filmmaker born and raised there. 🕷️
After receiving his honor, Tim sat down for a career retrospective with Scott Feinberg of the Hollywood Reporter's “Awards Chatter” podcast.
Surprise guest- author and speaker Victoria Price, daughter of actor Vincent Price, was present to honor Burton and reflect on his collaborations with her father.
Burton's relationship with BIFF began in 2022 when he agreed to lend his name to the Tim Burton Visionary Award. This award annually recognizes a local Burbank filmmaker who shows unique imagination and creativity.
We are still on cloud nine that Tim was a part of this year's festival, and we are excited to continue honoring his filmmaking legacy with the Tim Burton Visionary Award for years to come! 🕸️

I still watch Tim Burton movies when they hit theatres. I loved his movies growing up and still do!

[@GMMXX80]

Someone had told me once a movie that Tim Burton needs to do and it had never occured to me before but, it makes sense and I wish he were interested in it, but it was suggested to me years ago Tim Burton needs to do THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH, I completely agree

[@GMMXX80]

I'll do the Screenplay for it if needs be

Liked Mars Attacks and Pee Wee movie.

Tim should direct a western.
Plot twist. There’s a ghost.

He almost did, in between Ed Wood and Mars Attacks! An adaptation of Richard Brautigan's The Hawkline Monster that didn't pan out. Jack Nicholson and Clint Eastwood were interested in being in it...
