Danny devito pretty much did everything on this movie: starred, narrated, produced and directed it. But most importantly him and his wife (who also plays his wife in themovie!) took care of Mara (matilda) as her mother was in hospice dying of cancer as the movie was shot. Danny even got an advanced copy of the film so Mara's mother could see it before she died, which she eventually went on to do 4 months before the movie released. He also dedicated the movie to her.

Watching it back is a totally different experience. The whole “fantasy” is just the world from a child’s perspective. When you’re 3 feet tall being tossed above someone over 6ft is basically flying. The power adults have, “I’m smart, you’re dumb, I’m big, your little” is basically what every kid hears when they are being bossed around. Your favorite teacher is like an adoptive parent. Stories are magic before you fully grasp the difference between fiction and non fiction.

Danny Devito directed, narrated, and starred in this. The woman playing his wife is his wife in real life. In the books, Matilda loses her powers after being adopted by Miss Honey. Her powers came through rage and strife. She was happy with Miss Honey, so she no longer had access to her powers.

What I found interesting is in addition to directing, narrating, and starring in it Danny Devito and his wife Rhea Perlman (played Matilda's mom) took on parental roles for Mara Wilson (Matilda) during filming. Mara's mom was battling cancer and wasn't going to make it to the film's release. Danny, being a wonderful gem of a human, arranged a private screening ahead of the theatrical release so she could see the film before she died. Mara came out with an autobiography where she talks about it and how wonderful Danny and Rhea were to her during that time.

@laurenjohnson5941 Месяц назад

This movie is based on a Roald Dahl novel that my big sister used to read to me when we were little. Sitting on her top bunk, chewing on ice cubes, trying not to hit my head on the ceiling, with my sister doing silly voices for her narration are *core memories* for me. She read me The Witches, the BFG, Matilda, and Charlie & the Chocolate Factory (all books written by Dahl). Our own home situation pretty much sucked, and it wasn't until much later that I found out she was also going through something really bad - but even with all that going on, she was lovely to me , which is crazy to think back on because she's only 3 years older than me. Roald Dahl books are nice for kids because the narrative usually makes its child characters the most rational, while the adults are either the aggressors or ineffectual. that might've sounded sad on a reread ? but fr I love this movie and it reminds me of how great my big sister is!

The actress who plays Miss Trunchbull is Pam Ferris. A great British actress who starred in an award-winning series called 'The Darling Buds of May'.

Most Americans don't know Roald Dahl, I think their equivalent is Dr.Seuss

@ISoWin4eva Месяц назад

@@drewmaidment2685 I really don't believe that's true that "most Americans don't know Roald Dahl" considering that every library, school library I've visited has his books. The movies are big and remain standard to the fact that Dahl Day has been promoted by publishers even in the recent past. I know educators are likely to pair his books with the movie when they are able. Dahl is readily available here; box sets are found in every store imaginable and even in most school book fair vendors. Dahl is classic. As an educator, I've seen his biographical articles in most, if not all, of our nationwide school and public library databases. If someone has never heard of Roald Dahl, they even know his books and not the author's name; someone was likely "not a big reader" or they didn't like that kind of genre or fiction as a whole. I see these categories every year. That being said, we're all prone to miss something that others may consider "common knowledge", but Dahl isn't likely to be in that category for most Americans. In fact, this being the end of the school year for most schools in the US, I bet students will hear about his books for summer reading, read/have read-alouds for some of his short stories or watch one of the movies over the next few weeks or so. I know one of public library that has the rights to show Wonka so, of course, they will promote him, because his works stand the test of time.

The magical element of everything is always turned up to 11 when viewed through a child's eyes, and this movie was no exception. But the story behind it is even better when you learn how wonderful Danny and Rhea are as people. They became a second family to Mara (Matilda) during production, as her mom was undergoing treatment for cancer and eventually passed away. The complete opposites of their characters in the film, they are two caring, loving human beings.

God I grew up with this movie. I can still recite it word for word in my sleep lmao. This was such a comfort movie for me, and growing up with a verbally abusive parent, I realized later why. I've also always loved reading so much, so seeing another character who utilizes books and reading as their main form of escapism just made me love both reading and the movie more! I even made everyone watch it at my like 8th birthday party 😂So glad you guys watched it!! Lil fun fact, while filming the sequence where Matilda is dancing in the room after finally unlocking her powers, Mara Wilson was shy and too embarrassed to dance by herself around the room, so Danny DeVito made literally everyone behind the cameras dance with her so she wasn't alone! Even the camera people were tapping their feet along with her. He really took care of her on this set while filming. I've seen a bunch of other comments sharing that so I won't get into that side of it, but it's just really cool how much he cared for her.

That infamous scene of Matilda and Ms. Honey running away from her was one of the most intense scenes ever. Matilda hiding under that table was such an IQ+ move on her end.

Mara Wilson who played Matilda, voices a teacher in the 1st episode of Helluva Boss. There was a reference to Miss Honey, "don't forget to work on your times tables."

This movie has such a special place in my heart, it was my little sisters favorite movie and she would always ask me to watch it with her. I would since I only got to see her every other weekend so this movie reminds me of really good memories of us when we were kids☺️

Danny Devito and Rea Perlman actually husband and wife have been for years even before this movie...one of my favorite Hollywood couples

Yeah, as director, Danny Devito does the narration, and it’s definitely confusing. It would fit better if it was narrated by Rhea Perlman or Miss Honey. Mrs. Wormwood gets a bit of redemption by realizing that they aren’t a good fit to be her parents. It’s a nice gesture that she lets go of Matilda to be with Miss Honey.
