A 14h00 M6 offers the youth film Mary Poppins Returns. London in the 1930s. Jane and Michael, the Banks children, heroes of the first Mary Poppins in 1964, are now adults. Michael, an inconsolable widower, somehow brings up his three children, supported by his sister Jane, who followed the example of their suffragette mother, by defending the workers. One morning, they learn that they are threatened with expulsion … A sumptuous staging carried by the charm of Emily Blunt who, with a certain panache, takes up the challenge of succeeding the cult Julie Andrews.
To be continued at 3:55 p.m. on M6 disney classic The jungle Book. Threatened by a tiger, escorted by a panther, a young boy raised by wolves returns to the world of men. His journey is strewn with pitfalls …
Then always on M6 at 5.15 p.m., we watch the animated film Monsters, Inc.. Inadvertently, monsters, tasked with terrifying children in the human world, allow a girl to enter their town of Monstropolis. Pixar invites us to a stunning parade of creatures that are more hilarious than scary. With its many gags and winks, this little 3D animation marvel is monstrously successful!
Despicable Me 2 is broadcast at 7.20 p.m. on TMC. Lucy Wilde and Silas Ramsbottom of the Anti-Villains League summon Gru to headquarters. A major new villain, hungry for domination, has been detected. As a former villain, Gru knows how these people operate. The League is counting on him to put Eduardo out of harm’s way …
In 1836, after the rebellion in the Mexican province of Texas, a hundred insurgents took refuge in the Alamo monastery, which had been transformed into a fort, and resisted the 7,000 Mexican soldiers led by General Santa Anna to the death. France 3 bet on the western Alamo at 1:25 p.m. With the help of his old friend John Ford, the giant John Wayne goes behind the camera for the first time and, with a fine team of adventurers, signs a spectacular epic which, tinged with patriotism, culminates in scenes of very spectacular and a final as strong as it is moving.
Finally on Art, we watch the adventure film at 3.35 p.m. Ivanhoe. In England, in the 12th century. The struggle of a Saxon knight against Prince John, the felonious brother of King Richard the Lionheart … If Ivanhoe is not Robin Hood (nor Robert Taylor, Errol Flynn), these medieval adventures are not far from equaling the masterpiece by Michael Curtiz. Dynamism of the characters magnificently typed and interpreted in line, the magnificence of the decorations, enhanced by the use of Technicolor, spectacular tournament scenes: Walter Scott would not have denied his baby.
