S. Lewis, who taught Renaissance literature and other subjects at Oxford for many years, composed his great cycle of seven childrens fantasy novels with the New Testament in mind and with some of the literary traditions it inspired close at hand. But anyone who grew up with the Narnia books is likely to be concerned less with Lewiss beliefs than with the filmmakers fidelity to his work, which was idiosyncratic and imperfect in ways that may not easily lend themselves to appropriation by the shiny and hyperkinetic machinery of mass visual fantasy. But if a few liberties have been taken here and there, as is inevitable in the transition from page to screen, the spirit of the book is very much intact. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, directed by Andrew Adamson, does not achieve the sublimity of, say, Peter Jacksons Lord of the Rings trilogy, but it does use available technology to capture both the mythic power of Lewiss tale and, even better, its charm. Adult viewers are likely to imbibe the films wonders indirectly, through the eyes of accompanying children, who are likely to be delighted, and sometimes awed. SCREENED/AWARDED AT: BAFTA Awards, Emmy Awards, ...The Lion, the Witch, & the Wardrobe ( The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe )
