  • The Top Five Films You Did Not Know Were Based on Roald Dahl Stories
    The top five films you didn’t know were based on Roald Dahl stories Many Roald Dahl stories have been turned into family film favourites that we know and love, but did you know there’s more than just the books? Roald Dahl is responsible for a number of classic screenplays and storylines that we wouldn’t normally associate him with. Here’s five of our favourites, which you can enjoy once again on the big screen as part of Roald Dahl on Film: 1. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Roald Dahl was responsible for the screenplay of this truly magical, musical film. In fact, it was Roald Dahl that added in the Child Catcher as an extra character – so he’s responsible for giving us all those nightmares when we were small! 2. 36 hours This war movie released in 1965 was based on the short story ‘Beware of the Dog’ by Roald Dahl, which was first published in Harper’s Magazine in 1946. The story was also said to have influenced television series, The Prisoner. 3. You Only Live Twice The screenplay of this James Bond classic was another of Roald Dahl’s after he was approached by James Bond producers, Harry Saltzman and Albert Broccoli. The screenplay was the first to stray from Ian Fleming’s original story, as Roald Dahl famously said that the original wasn’t Fleming’s best work. 4. Gremlins The 1984 Steven Spielberg film Gremlins features characters developed from one of Roald Dahl’s earliest books, The Gremlins. In fact, there’s every chance that it was Roald Dahl’s first ever book for children! It impressed his bosses at the British Embassy so much that they sent it to Walt Disney to make into a feature film.

  • The Ten Scariest Roald Dahl Characters on Film
    The ten scariest Roald Dahl characters on film Roald Dahl’s stories have delighted generations with their imagination and adventure. But every good story needs a baddie – and Roald Dahl’s were some of the scariest! Now fans of all ages can relive their fears as Roald Dahl’s films return, with 165 confirmed screenings and special events as part of the Roald Dahl on Film season. Here are ten characters that kept us up at night: 1. The Grand High Witch If the description in The Witches book wasn’t enough to give you nightmares, the image of Anjelica Huston as the Grand High Witch peeling off her mask to reveal her true face in the 1990 film adaptation was sure to do the trick. Huston spent eight hours in make-up before filming to transform into her character! 2. The Child Catcher Many aren’t aware, but the character of the Child Catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was added into Ian Fleming’s original story by Roald Dahl; a truly terrifying addition that still has us freaked out to this day. The role was played by Robert Helpmann, who used to take out his top set of false teeth during filming to make himself look more gaunt; this also created the hissed tones in his voice that used to fill our nightmares. 3. Miss Trunchbull We’re not sure what scares us more, being swung around the playground by our pigtails or enduring a spell in the ‘chokey’ for doing absolutely nothing wrong. Either way, we wouldn’t want to get on the wrong side of Matilda’s Miss Trunchbull! Watching Pam Ferris snort and charge like a bull in the 1996 film is enough to put any child off misbehaving; apparently she used to stay in character on set to scare all the children and make sure their fear was genuine when the camera was rolling! 4.

  • Legacy of Chew Women
    Cliveden: Legacy of the Chew Women Of Germantown ™ by Jennifer L. Green West Chester University Faculty Advisor—Dr. Charles Hardy III June 2004 Chew women Page 2 Preface I began this research project with simple instructions—to find out whatever I could about three particular women who lived at Cliveden, and compress it into one comprehensible paper. As my guides, I had a very concise and thoroughly researched site report by Nancy E. Richards, and an even more precise and detailed Historic Structures Report. They formed the backbone of my research, and I am immensely indebted to both. I discovered, however, that I was not getting “the feel” of these women as people, as personalities in and of themselves. The site report teased me with Anne Sophia Penn Chew’s clear and adamant opinions about the Civil War and about her new niece-in-law; about the vulnerability behind Mary Johnson Brown Chew’s rigid adherence to the laws of Philadelphian society; and about the easy-going Elizabeth Brown Chew, who, in her unmarried state, enjoyed liberties denied to other women of her time. After reading through the letters and documents left by the Chew family, I came to see these women in a more rounded way—as people with unique gifts, dealing with problems that were often commonplace, but sometimes quite heart-wrenching. They lived during some of the most tumultuous years of American history, and their observations give the modern scholar an intriguing insight into the political and social issues of the time. Between them, these women cover all aspects of womanhood in the 19th and early 20th centuries—childhood, spinsterhood, motherhood, and widowhood.
