Totally. I could see from this video how much fun he had working with the kids and seeing how much they had on set. And another thing I remember hearing was that he and his wife also cared for Mara while her mother was ill with cancer, and then prior to her mother's death Danny showed her the film because she wanted to watch it. Such a kind hearted guy.

I loved the part where Danny recounts that Matilda told him that she was embarrassed to dance in front of everyone, so Danny got everyone to dance as well while she was dancing, and she was not the only one anymore. That was so sweet. By the way, Pam Farris didn't get hurt filming the erasers scene hitting her, but she had to go to the hospital a couple of times because she sometimes would get big chunks of chalk in her eyes that needed to get washed out.

Props to DeVito for his direction and his treating of the kids on set. I read that he and his wife even cared for the actress that plays Matilda after her mother passed. Shows that he is a really nice guy all around. I couldn't even imagine what it would be like to be in the middle of Hollywood at such a young age, and not only that, but also to have your mom pass away right after filming a movie that you are the star of. I hope her mom got to see the film before her passing.

Thanks to that she was able to watch her daughter play Matilda before passing away. The man is an absolute legend

Haha thats cause it was the cheapest way to do it! CGI quality at the time Matilda came out was... how you say... Craptacular. This was either the same age as or older than Space Jam, and if you ever saw that... yeah... better to use prosthetics. 😅

I know, it was adorable. It’s nice to see a video of Mara having fun while filming Matilda since she was dealing with some pretty tough things in her personal life at the time. Her mother was actually dying of cancer while Matilda was in production. She, also, had a lot of anxiety as a kid and was quite sensitive. Filming Matilda must have been a nice distraction for her in a way. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

That's because they're all really there. There's actually props to interact with. Compare the Lord of the Rings movies with the Hobbit movies for example. The Lord of the Rings movies have real props. Real things for the actors to touch and interact with. In The Hobbit, a lot of things are not actually there so it's awkward and fake. Both were made by the same people with several of the same actors. However, there is a huge gap in quality because of the CGI.

There's such a dark side to children's TV. Nickelodeon seems to have a lot of dark secrets in particular. But if you want proof how this movie was not that, just look at the interviews with the cast.
