CS Lewis was a Christian author who used his imagination to both entertain and inspire. The film "The Chronicles of Narnia", produced by Mark Johnson and Philip Stuer, is a film adaptation of the book The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The book is the first in a series of seven books written by Lewis entitled The Chronicles of Narnia. The film has a strong alignment with the Bible, some of the ways this is conveyed are: through the use of plot, production design, symbolism, characters and how the characters represent biblical figures through their role and their appearance in the film. This can be demonstrated by looking at the script and exploring the similarities between the film and biblical stories, as well as imagery that brings the Christian connection closer. Plot The producers of "The Chronicles of Narnia" copy a variety of ideas from the Bible and apply them to their plot. For example, when Lucy enters the world of Narnia, she is immediately attracted to the street lamp; this light could represent Jesus, as Jesus is quoted in the Bible as saying "I am the light of the world" (John 8:12). Another example is that many times in the film the children are called “sons of Adam” and “daughters of Eve”. This is a clear reference to the Bible, particularly at the beginning of the film where Lucy meets Mr Tumnus and he says; “So you are Eva's daughter?”, followed by Lucia saying; "my mother's name is Helen", followed by Mr. Tumnus' saying; “but are you actually human?”, deducing that all human beings are descendants of Adam and Eve. At the beginning of the film the White Witch deceives and tempts Edmund. Just as Satan tempted and deceived Adam and Eve. Next, when the White Witch said "Behold, the great lion." It is the symbol of P...... middle of paper ......ng who has always known what adventures are in the closet almost as if he were God himself with all the wisdom and knowledge, along with the love and compassion that one would expect from a loving God. Mr. Tumnus, the Faun represents Judas, who first betrays Aslan and wants to kidnap Lucy, until Aslan appears from the fire and repents, but consequently loses his life, and is also similar to the "Doubting Thomas" of the gospels. However, Mr Tumnus could also mean the apostle Paul, who first worked against Christianity and then became a Christian (Selby, 2005).
