the third film in the books of C.S.Lewis the fourth is the Silver Chair.

 

I loved the books still have them intact, I loved this film 

I wonder how they will deal with the final book in the series "The Last Battle" if it is ever made. C S Lewis was a very strong Christian and the conclusion of the book is the strongest evidence of that. If they are faithful to the spirit of the book it won't go down well with non-Christians and if they are not then the whole point of the book is lost.

Hello El Loro so you get it too .does it matter if the Last Battle is lost on some people.I stick to my beliefs right or wrong ,other people may dis- agree and I respect their views also,as you obviously do.

 

The films havn't gone down that well but they are magical to me ..as are the books 

thanks for pointing that out about the last book

I am not a member of a film club or a critic 

a lot of the films i see are from online sites such as Youtube, veehd.com (divx player needed) and 1channel.ch. and some are rentals from Lovefilm.com

 

I buy DVDs from amazon and ebay but i never buy any that are over ÂĢ10

Re C S Lewis. Besides the Narnia series he wrote 3 science fiction/fantasy books. "Out of the Silent Planet" (which is set principally on Mars), "Perelandra" (set mainly on Venus, and "That Hideous Strength" set on Earth. They are more adult in nature than the Narnia stories. There is also an incomplete sequel to "That Hideous Strength" called "The Dark Tower".

 

As I'm sure you know, Lewis and Tolkien were close friends. Another of their close friends was Charles Williams. He was also a novellist and wrote some extraordinary dark supernatural fantasy books. In chronological order they are "War in Heaven", "Many Dimensions", "The Place of the Lion", "Shadows of Ecstasy", "The Greater Trumps", "Decent into Hell", and "All Hallows' Eve". They are not a series as such. Williams is nowhere near as well known as Lewis and Tolkien.

 

Lewis's "That Hideous Strength" is the closest to Williams' novels.

Frodo, C S Lewis, Tolkien and also Charles Wiliams lived in Oxford during WW2 and afterwards. They would meet on a regular basis to have a drink and to read and discuss their writing. They called themselves The Inklings. There were others in the group but Lewis and Tolkien were the leaders. Humphrey Carpenter wrote a book about The Inklings which is worth reading:
