Trivia:
Rachael Henley, who plays the grown-up Lucy in the hunting scene near the end of the film, is actually the older sister of Georgie Henley, who plays the young Lucy throughout the rest of the movie. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: In the beginning, when the German airplanes are bombing London and Edmund and Peter are in the garden in front of their house, you can see the shadows of the airplanes on the ground. This is not possible because it is night and there is no light above the airplanes that could cause those shadows. On the contrary, searchlights tried to discover those airplanes from below pointing into the sky. If there was a light above the airplanes strong enough to create shadows, they would be moving much faster. moreQuotes:

What a fabulous movie! I just saw a screening of it (with a bunch of other actors and writers) and the whole place burst into applause at the end.
Tilda Swinton is amazing as the White Witch. Her cold, evil gaze could freeze anyone.
I loved the kids - especially the little Georgie Henley, who played Lucy. Liam Neeson as the voice of Aslan was suitably majestic and comforting and grand.
It was beautifully filmed, and I felt Narnia was perfectly realized.
Looking forward to the movies that will follow.
