Just Go With It
But How Long Is Too Long? Cara B. Krumwiede
The Bible says that lies are treacherous and eventually become exposed (Proverbs 11:3, 12:19). This definitely becomes the case for Danny and Katherine. They become so ensnared by their lies that they must tell the truth to get out of them.

According to reports in the New York Daily News and TVGuide.com, Perry Moore of Walden Media, an Executive Producer of the Chronicles of Narnia movies series, passed away yesterday morning. Moore, 39, was found unconscious in his apartment by his life-partner Hunter Hill. Sources are quoted as saying the death was the apparent result of an overdose of OxyContin.
A report about this tragedy was filed by "Susanofgp" on the Narnia fansite Aslan's Country. She ends the article with a personal note that many fans of the series are sure to echo:
Perry Moore was instrumental in bringing the Narnia books to film, and he hoped to see all seven made. I pray they will all be made, in honor of him. Thanks, Perry, for all you did to make Narnia come to life.
Yesterday we reported on the tragic death of 39-year-old Perry Moore, an Executive Producer of the Walden Media Chronicles of Narnia films. NarniaFans.com published a follow-up to the story this morning, citing an article on WTKR.com. WTKR is a CBS affiliate in Virginia with studios in Virginia Beach, Virginia, Moore's hometown. The station was able to interview the deceased's father, Bill Moore, who does not believe the cause of death was a suicidal overdose, as some news outlets have been reporting.
The elder Moore did say there could have been medical complications because of increased doses of pain medication for knee and back pain. (Perry Moore had been putting off surgery.)
Of further interest to Narnia fans is the statement by Bill Moore that his son had told him that he had secured funding for a fourth Narnia movie, The Magician's Nephew. While most Narnia fans had been hoping The Silver Chair would be next (I even created a Facebook page promoting it.), this comes as welcome news in hope that the series will continue.
As Paul Martin says on NarniaFans.com, this report about The Magician's Nephew has not been confirmed. We will certainly keep you updated as soon as we hear anything firm about this.

Now on DVD. This is one of those rare movies that has in fact driven national debate. The release of the DVD will bring in a new audience, and the question is not if we need to respond to the needs of our youth; the question is, will we?
