Dear friends,
This YouTube video (a couple of hours old at the time of writing) about a new biographic film, starring Max McLean as the older Lewis, looks very encouraging.
McLean is an adult convert on whom Lewis has been a big influence, and he seems to have done his biographic “homework” very well.

This sounds familiar to me. Ah yes, here it is; he did a stage version of it some time back. I posted about that last year:
Some months ago, my parents were able to watch a live stage production of The Most Reluctant Convert, in which Max McLean portrays C.S. Lewis, describing his journey from atheism to Christianity. That show has been recorded, and they gave me the DVD yesterday. It’s available on Vimeo as a rental for about $4:
Amazon (of course) sells the DVD, and you can watch it free through them if you’re an Amazon Prime member. I haven’t yet watched it, but plan to shortly; I’ve heard good things about…
These aren’t what I’d been thinking of, but McLean has come up here in the past as well:
