The Fantastic Mr. Fox junketers are visiting Great Missenden, the home of author Roald Dahl — small village, slightly chill air, about 40 kilometers northwest of London. I have a very short break between interviews and cups of cider so I’m posting these. Nothing of any substance until this evening, and even then…


“Dahl probably wrote Mr. Fox as an animal version of himself.” — quote from Fox voicer Jason Schwartzman.

“I’m seven years old now and my father died at 7 and 1/2. I don’t want to live in a hole any more.”
