In Reply to: The religious allegory is what caused this film to suck pond water, IMHO. posted by Audiophilander on April 8, 2006 at 12:24:52:
Plans were in the works for bringing this story to the screen at least three years ago, if not more. The idea was even in place far earlier, it just took some time to purchase the rights from Lewis' family.
So, it doesn't seem that this movie has much to do with current political trends, or political/war/religious propaganda. The film is taken from a far-from-current book, and there are many of us who have long awaited its arrival to the big screen. For me, it has absolutely nothing to do with propaganda... it has to do with my childhood coming to life before my eyes.
