Which C.S. Lewis book was adapted into the 1956 film The Screwtape Letters?
Answer
No such 1956 film exists
Answer
No such 1956 film exists
No 1956 film called The Screwtape Letters was adapted from a C.S. Lewis book.
The Screwtape Letters is a 1942 Christian apologetics work presented as fictional correspondence from Screwtape, an experienced demon, to his junior nephew Wormwood. It is a book, not the title of a 1956 feature film. This distinction matters because references to adaptations and stage versions are sometimes incorrectly presented as a mid-century movie.
Lewis’s work has inspired dramatizations, audio productions, stage adaptations, and screen projects, but a 1956 film with that title is not part of the documented filmography. The book itself has also been adapted for theater, including stage productions based on the letters.
This is a verification question rather than a conventional title-identification question: the premise is false. The exact answer is that no such 1956 film exists, so none of the listed book titles can be the source of it.
