Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy are deported from London to the house of
an eccentric professor during World War II. They find life in the house
extremely dull, until Lucy discovers a wardrobe that leads to a magical
world called Narnia, where animals can talk and all are ruled over by
the wise and benevolent lion Aslan. The others don't believe her at
first, but soon all of them go through the wardrobe and discover all is
not well in Narnia. The land is being kept in a perpetual winter by the
evil White Witch, Jadis, who turns anyone who doesn't obey her into
stone. The children join Aslan and the animals loyal to him in an
attempt to vanquish Jadis.
Based on the 2nd in the series of books by C.S. Lewis,
"The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," the film tells the story of 4
children who go to live with an old professor during the war. One day,
while playing hide and seek, Lucy, the youngest of the children, finds a
wardrobe which leads to a magical land called Narnia. However Narnia is
being ruled by the evil White Witch who has made it snow for 100 years
and according to an old prophecy, Edmund, Lucy, Peter and Susan are the
"chosen ones" who will defeat the Witch. They are assisted by the true
ruler of Narnia, the lion, Aslan. With the good Narnians on their side
all 4 children must now defeat the witch using all their strength and
fulfill their destinies to become the new kings and queens of Narnia.
Special Features- Director Andrew Adamson and the four main child actors
offer one of the DVD's two audio commentaries. The children excitedly
share stories about working on the production and occasionally chatter
over one another to get out their discussion of the events of that
particular day of production. Additionally, they question the director
regarding how some of the scenes in the film were accomplished.
- The second commentary comes from Adamson, along with production designer Roger Ford and producer Mark Johnson.
Ford is on the phone during the commentary. The three provide an
enjoyable discussion of the behind-the-scenes work done on each scene,
chatting about the look of the picture, small details, shooting in
various sets and locations and the differences between the original book
and the movie.
- Bloopers on the first disc, some of which are actually
quite funny. Additionally, co-producer Douglas Gresham (stepson of C.S.
Lewis) offers some fun facts about the movie in an optional "pop-up"
trivia track.

which details how Adamson came aboard and his thoughts on the story, the
casting, working with the actors and the challenges of his first live
action project.
- "Children of
Narnia" is a 26-minute look at working with the child actors in the
film.
