Director Paul King and writer and actor Simon Farnaby are bringing us a new look at Roald Dahl’s beloved confectioner in Wonka next year, having already delighted the entire world with their stewardship of the Paddington Cinematic Universe. But there’s another movie in their catalogue that’s worth watching: 2009’s Bunny and the Bull, a bittersweet travelogue told with imaginative visual flair and a lot of heart.
Stephen (Edward Hogg) lives alone in his London flat, unable to venture outside due to a past traumatic experience. He spends his days meticulously cataloguing and hoarding his possessions. After ordering a takeaway one night, Stephen’s memory is jogged and he recalls a trip to Europe with his best friend, Bunny, played by Farnaby.
