About The Marvellous World of Roald Dahl
Fighter pilot, inventor, spy - the life of Roald Dahl is often stranger than fiction. Through a vast collection of his letters, writings and archive, the story is told largely in his own words with contributions from his last wife Liccy, daughter Lucy and biographer Donald Sturrock.
Directed by Andrew Thompson, The Marvellous World of Roald Dahl leans on a strong ensemble — Robert Lindsay, Quentin Blake, Winston Churchill — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 2016.
