In 1922, a young Roald Dahl journeys to meet his favorite author, Beatrix Potter. This comedic drama, inspired by Dahl’s real life, showcases how life-changing that meeting was for both Dahl and Potter. Â
Spy, fighter pilot, and chocolate historian are just a few of the titles Roald Dahl has held in his life, but his most well-known title is author. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, and James and the Giant Peach are among his most popular works, but Dahl also has collections of short stories written for adults and several movie scripts adapted into films. Witness the inspired childhood of the man known as “one of the greatest storytellers for children of the 20th century”.
