- Synopsis
- Roald Dahl was the man who came up with Willy Wonka and Oompa Loompa's; the BFG; Matilda's telekinesis; Mr. Fox's larcenous ways; Mr. & Mrs. Twit and the Grand High Witch. The Worl's greatest storyteller but perhaps, more surprisingly, this is also a story about Patricia Neal; "the new Garbo"; one of the finest actors of her generation. Two people who came out of a tunnel of grief over the death of a child; one with a classic book in their hand; the other with an Oscar. Both, in different ways, inspired to greater creativity by a great tragedy.
