• a deeper understanding of the man who was C.S. Lewis
  This movie was a heartwarming, then tragic, story of how C.S. Lewis came to love and marry his wife, and gives gravitas to his later writings on Pain and Miracles. It was well done at many levels and yet didn't preach. The movie showed how he lived his faith, which is all most of us can do. It made the point that faith isn't a shield against difficult times, but a boat to make travel through deep water easier while helping to steer toward solid ground.

• THE FINEST VERSION!
  Joss Ackland is simply superb as C.S.Lewis in the perfect version of this moving story. Claire Bloom is also wonderful. Thrilled to find it available after all these years!!!

  Sorry haven't seen movie yet I have two movies of CS Lewis. This one is not the one I watched.

• Gets It Right better Than American Version
  Central to Lewis' life was his faith, before, during and after Joy's death. This point is well made in this film. The poignant scene after the funeral in the attic with the young boy aiding Jack's grief will remain a memorable vision in my mind.
  Only critique I would have is that of Joy's intellect not coming through, but on the whole this is best so far on Lewis and his Shadowlands. Image of faith as diving is well made, with Lewis telling Douglas at the end: I"ll teach you how to dive" powerful.
