C.S. Lewis:  Through the Shadowlands 

Description

Starring Joss Ackland and Claire Bloom. Winner of over a dozen prestigious awards including the International Emmy for Best Drama and two British Academy Awards.

He cried out, "Where is God when I really need him?" This film is about the agonizing spiritual crisis of C.S. Lewis when his wife died from cancer. The love, grief, pain, and sorrow were so shattering to Lewis that his basic Christian beliefs, magnificently communicated in his many books, were now called into serious doubt.

But he picked up the pieces and moved out of the depressing "shadowlands," realizing that "real life has not even begun yet."

Includes 90-minute television version and 73-minute abridged version.


Customer reviews for 'C.S. Lewis: Through the Shadowlands'

«Love, Grief andVvictory»

This was an incredible DVD!
Buy, borrow, beg (don't steal) this film.
It brought me through its in depth revelations of Love, grief,loss and finally through a long journey ,to Victory.
I saw the other film" Shadowlands" with Anthony Hopkins a few years back and loved it- but, in my opinion, this is superior by far..
I very seldom feel or show a great deal of emotion viewing a movie but this one delves in to the depths of your heart.
I watched it alone and glad I did. I could indulge myself in every level of emotion that was elicited.
At certain moments while watching it I was "treading water- struggling to survive" and finally reached a calm stretch of water and" floated peacefully on my back gazing upward at the beautiful blue sky".

Thankful!

No way to adequately describe this amazing,cathartic piece of art.

«a deeper understanding of the man who was C.S. Lewis»

This movie was a heartwarming, then tragic, story of how C.S. Lewis came to love and marry his wife, and gives gravitas to his later writings on Pain and Miracles. It was well done at many levels and yet didn't preach. The movie showed how he lived his faith, which is all most of us can do. It made the point that faith isn't a shield against difficult times, but a boat to make travel through deep water easier while helping to steer toward solid ground.

«THE FINEST VERSION!»

Joss Ackland is simply superb as C.S.Lewis in the perfect version of this moving story. Claire Bloom is also wonderful. Thrilled to find it available after all these years!!!
