amelia_petkovaI've owned the DVD for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe for several years but I didn't get around to watching any of the commentaries until now. This morning I started the audio commentary with Andrew Adamson (the director), William Moseley (Peter), Anna Popplewell (Susan), Skandar Keynes (Edmund), and Georgie Henley (Lucy). It's a riot; the kids tease each other just like real siblings would. So far I've watched up through the scene where Edmund meets the White Witch. Highlights:
--Georgie was completely terrified of horses in the beginning (where Mrs. Macready fetches the Pevensie children in a cart) and somebody told her not to make any sudden movements, or the horse would attack.
--Difficulties because Skandar grew at least 5 inches while shooting the film.
--Georgie had to eat real sardines during the scene at Mr. Tumnus's (James McAvoy) house and was completely grossed out.
--For the scene when Lucy enters Narnia for the first time, Georgie was blindfolded and bodily carried across to the set, where she saw the winter wood.
--The Pottymouth Bucket. Every time somebody swore and Georgie heard them, that person had to put $2 into a bucket they kept on set. Once, William's cell phone went off while they were filming and he had to pay because he swore; then he had to pay even more because the others didn't like his ring tone.
--Teasing Skandar about having a crush on Tilda Swinton while filming the scene with the White Witch.
--In the process of filming the above scene, Skandar ended up eating about 36 very large pieces of (real) Turkish Delight. I've had Turkish Delight and though it's very good, I can understand why he felt sick at the end of that.
