• Made for 1989 television, 4:3 ratio is all you need
  This is a wonderfully-realised television version of Roald Dahl's novel. It evokes a golden age of pastoral 1950s England as Dahl does in his book.

• AT LAST ITS ON DVD!
  I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this film in the DVD shop as I have been looking forward to seeing this film for ages! I love everything about this film (except the first scene when they show men shooting the pheasants, which I felt was unnecessary) Its a shame there isn't more extras but the documentary, showing the film being made was very interesting.
