Hi!
I haven’t been around cause ….we moved. And 2 days before the move, my dad broke his ribs. So yeah…no book or movie watching for me!
Until now.
And i bring you….
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.
Why TCK’s should check it out?
The director Andrew Adamson is a TCK. Which makes the themes of the book telling if you look at it in a TCK light: themes of alienation, repatriation, inability to ‘fit in’ again into a place that you are meant to. Once you are back in the place you wish to be that things have changed.
In several interviews he has stated that for the Pevensie children going back to Narnia the second time is bittersweet.They have spent all that time longing to go back and then they realise that they can never go back to the Narnia they knew because it has changed.
William Moseley (Peter Pevensie) said that for him, Peter’s journey is both an emotional one as well as a physical. Peter has returned to Narnia, but has to yet again prove himself and that he is unwilling to notice that the place he oved has changed as well as himself.
Other notes:
The Pevensie children are great as per usual. Liam Neeson returns as Aslan. And Eddie Izzard is Reepicheep!
Also, Prince Caspian is played by Ben Barnes, who played Dakin in Alan Bennet’s acclaimed The History Boys stageplay.
Websites:
Official Prince Caspian website (very nicely set out - as a train!).

You know, I hadn’t thought to look at it from a TCK point of view, but I guess it is…with a few twists…
But yeah, I loved that movie! I’ve always been a Narnia girl.
