Two Dads Watching MATILDA for the FIRST TIME!!
3,216Break out the chokey and grab your library card — Syntell and Rekkai are diving into the magical world of Matilda for the very first time! Based on Roald Dahl’s beloved book and directed by Danny DeVito, this cult classic blends heart, humor, and telekinesis in a story that still hits home decades later.
Matilda tells the story of a brilliant and kind-hearted little girl born into a truly terrible family. Despite being constantly overlooked and mistreated, Matilda discovers she has a gift that might be the key to standing up for herself — and helping others along the way. With the help of a caring teacher and a bit of brainpower (okay, a lot of brainpower), she learns how to take control of her life and change her fate.
It’s whimsical. It’s emotional. And yes — it’s got some moments that hit WAY harder as adults.

• Mara Wilson as Matilda Wormwood
• Danny DeVito as Harry Wormwood (and the narrator)
• Rhea Perlman as Zinnia Wormwood
