The movie The Chronicles of Narnia is based on the C.S. Lewis book The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. There are, however, several obvious differences: * The movie begins with a realistic, terrifying scene of the bombing of London. The book never describes the bombing with such detail, but actually begins with a rather peaceful explanation of why the children are being sent to live in the country. * Edmund hits a cricket ball through the window of the Professor's mansion in the movie, which destroys a suit of armour. Whilst escaping from the wrath of the scary Mrs Macready, the children find themselves having to hide in the room with the wardrobe, which is where their adventures begin. In the book, the house is frequently opened for tours, and the children are told they must always make themselves scarce during a tour. During one such time, whilst trying to stay out of the way, they find themselves almost "driven" into the room with the wardrobe. * In the movie, the Beavers and the children are in very real danger when Maugrim and his wolves come close to capturing them not far from the Beavers' house. In the book, whilst the fear is always that they will be caught, they never come this close to danger. * In the movie, the children and the Beavers are swept into the raging torrent of thawing waters, where they almost drown, but this does not happen in the book. Some less obvious differences are: * Three servants besides Mrs Macready are mentioned briefly in the book, but never even alluded to in the movie. * In the movie, when Edmund is captured back by the "good" side, the dwarf is left in his place, tied up against the tree. In the book, the dwarf and the witch both escape, using excellent camouflage to elude their potential captors. * The little fox who helps the children and the Beavers escape, but is turned into stone in the movie, is not such an active player in the book. * The Father Christmas in the book is described as big and jolly and wearing a red suit. In the movie, he is much more subdued, does not wear a red suit, and does not really look as he is imagined, or described in the book.
