David Walliams (of "Little Britain" fame) narrates and takes an active part in this film about the work of Roald Dahl. While it's by no means comprehensive (it talks little about Dahl's personal life and never mentions his writing the script for a Bond film), it is personal--with Walliams talking at length about Dahl's style and gifts. What I particularly liked was watching Walliams reading Dahl stories to kids throughout the film--as his ability to do the voices and tell the story were wonderful--so much so that I'd love to hear him to voice work, such as cartoons. Overall, very informative and a film that is infectious--infecting the viewer with an admiration for the writer's works.
