Book Vs. Movie: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (replay)
The 1964 Ian Fleming Novel Vs. the 1968 Classic Movie
Book vs. Movie: Chitty Chitty Bang BangThe Margos explore Ian Fleming's only children's story, "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," published in October 1964, shortly after his death at 56. Written for his son Caspar, the story features characters inspired by Fleming's children and their friends, set against the backdrop of 1920s aero-engine racing carts. The tale follows Commander Caractacus Pott and his magical car, "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," named for the sound it makes. The car embarks on various adventures in England and France, able to swim and fly while evading villains who kidnap children for robberies. Produced by Albert "Cubby" Broccoli, the film took liberties with the story and included music by the Sherman Brothers. It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song and became a stage musical in 2002.
So, which did we like more between the original story and the 1968 adaptation?
