Disney TV Movie - Danny the Champion of the World (1989)

Looked for this movie for quite a while and finally found it. Unfortunately there are Dutch subs throughout the movie. To my knowledge this movie has yet to come out on DVD and the subtitles don't really detract from the quality of this rare movie. Film is based on a book by Roald Dahl, the man behind Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Enjoy



Somewhere in England, in the Autumn of 1955, a widowed father and his son live an idyllic life together. Only their gas station happens to sit on a piece of land that a local developer wants to buy. And when he won't take no for an answer, and sets government inspectors and social works onto Danny and his father, Danny and his father decide to get even with Hazell and his pheasant- shooting friends in a manner in keeping with their own family tradition.
