Crossroads of the Fantasy and Spiritual Worlds
17 January 2006
"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" is based on the famed fantasy novel by C.S. Lewis. It's a story much in the vein of J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. In this story, the four Pevensie children must leave wartime London as the Germans attack, for the safety of a country house. There, they encounter a magical wardrobe that leads them to a land inhabited by talking animals and legendary creatures. The good leader is the divine lion, Aslan (voiced by Liam Neeson), who must battle Jadis, the White Witch (played by Tilda Swinton). The story is fascinating, even with the underlying Christian message. The visuals are amazing and eye-catching. In the end, you'll eagerly await more of Narnia's lore.
