Film about Lewis and Tolkien's friendship

There’s a film in the works about their relationship relevantmagazine.com/slices/ … ewis-works

Should be interesting :slight_smile:

Here’s the original Entertainment Weekly article: insidemovies.ew.com/2014/07/16/j … -new-film/

I think it’s… odd… that Simon West (of all people) has been hired to film it – I don’t think of a Lewis/Tolkien biopic when I think of Con Air or Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (or The Expendables 2 for that matter.) Then again, the production studio is calling it a drama fantasy set in WW2, so… I dunno, are we talking about the War In Heaven graphic novel with the Inklings vs Aleister Crowley and an army of demons?? The flashback scenes to their WW1 service should look punchy at least.
