@simonfarnaby absolutely loved seeing The Magic Faraway Tree today, thank you for bringing the story so gently up to date while still being true to the original, many happy childhood hours spent reading the books - lovely to revisit the characters as a grown up!

Thank you Amanda !
The smile on my face, as Fran climbed up the ladder to the Land of Goodies and I was transported back to being a child and reading the book, was massive. What a lovely film #TheMagicFarawayTree is. Well done @simonfarnaby

Wow great which cinema ?
Apr 4
Simon, just thought I'd let you know that we thought it was fantastic when we went to the cinema yesterday.
We couldn't get in the first screening we tried as there were only single seats available, and then the screen was packed for the showing we could get tickets for!

This is a good point people think this is a studio movie but it’s 100% an indie movie - a rare thing especially in the family space!
support indie films and support the magic faraway tree!!
