Book Vs. Movie: Paddington
The 1958 Children’s Book Vs. the 2014 Movie

The Margos are feeling very British in this episode! English author Michael Bond created Paddington Bear, who first appeared in Bond's 1958 book A Bear Called Paddington and has since become a beloved character in numerous books, television series, and films. Paddington is a polite and curious bear from Peru who wears a duffle coat and a floppy hat. He often carries a suitcase with a label that reads, "Please look after this bear. Thank you." He was named after the London train station where the Brown family found him. The  2014 "Paddington" movie focuses on Paddington's journey to find a home and the bonds he forms with the Brown family. Which did we (the Margos) prefer of all of the adaptations?
In this ep, the Margos discuss:

• Author Michael Bond and his character of Paddington 
• How the 2014 film adapted the much-beloved work. 
• The cast of the 2014 film includes Ben Winshaw (voice of Paddington,) Hugh Bonneville (Henry Brown,) Sally Hawkins (Mary Brown,) Madeleine Harris (Judy Brown,) Samuel Joslin (Jonathan Brown,) Julie Walters (Mrs. Bird,) Nicole Kidman (Millicent,) Peter Capaldi (Mr. Curry,) Jim Broadbent (Samuel Gruber,) Imelda Staunton (Aunt Lucy,) Michael Gambon (Uncle Pastuzo,) and Tim Downie as Montogomery Clyde.
