Movie Reviews of C.S. Lewis: Through the Shadowlands
Movie Review: Best Ever CS Lewis Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I Have watched this superior drama since it's release in the eighties and have never tired of it. The atmosphere, the literate telling of the tale and the actors are uniformly wonderful. I have been reading Lewis since a teen amd have even collected British first editions of his works(which he would probably not encourage)and I believe have read every biography about Prof Lewis. Although there are liberties taken with the facts this version so captures the humane spirit of Lewis that it makes up for all that. I believe it was his friend and physician Dr Havard(the UBQ or useless quack as Lewis called him fondly) who upon viewing this film said that though Ackland looked and sounded nothing like his friend 'Jack' did none-the less manage to convey him in an uncannily accurate fashion. And so it seems when watching this delightful movie to all the events and characters as a whole.
Summary of C.S. Lewis: Through the Shadowlands
Starring Joss Ackland and Claire Bloom. Winner of over a dozen prestigious awards including the International Emmy for Best Drama and two British Academy Awards.He cried out, "Where is God when I really need him?" This film is about the agonizing spiritual crisis of C.S. Lewis when his wife died from cancer. The love, grief, pain, and sorrow were so shattering to Lewis that his basic Christian beliefs, magnificently communicated in his many books, were now called into serious doubt.
But he picked up the pieces and moved out of the depressing "shadowlands," realizing that "real life has not even begun yet."
Includes 90-minute television version and 73-minute abridged version.
