Now come on all you pessimistic movie haters out there! This movie is a treasure! The problem is that no one really sees the true meaning behind this film. Before that, Chuck's acting is superb.....not bad!!! He is a model thespian and consumate interpeter of scripts. Now as for what this movie represents. The base for this movie came, no doubt, from C.S. Lewis. This movie is somewhat related to "Narnia," although is based upon "That Hideous Strength." The mountain in this movie represents humanity, and the femecological destiny of our planet according to Suzette Elgin in her treatise on human relations "The Gentle Art of Verbal Self Defense." Chuck represents the Pendragon, or the guardian of the Arthurian throne, son of Uthur Pendragon. He and the children, representing Logres, or the civilized realm of Arthurian Britain, are charged with further guarding humanity (the mountain) against the evil business tycoons. The business men are clearly a representation of Lewis' N.I.C.E. Furthermore, they are an indirect representation of our 20th century totalitarian fears. For the average person this may be a bit much to handle, but with Chuck's guidance, we can all understand the importance of this movie to our everyday lives.
