I enjoyed this when I saw it when it was in the cinemas. I don't think it is for younger kids though.
One of the highlights for me was the glimpse that we got of an underwater circle of stones - complete Outlander moment for me!

We really enjoyed "Water Horse" when we watched it on DVD.

Nona, didn't you think Juliette Binoche was a rather strange choice for casting as Catherine Earnshaw? The rather refined French accent just didn't seem to fit with the wild Yorkshire lass of the novel...I was glad to see, though, that they took the story further to the next generation and didn't leave it at Cathy's death, as the old Laurence Olivier one did.
I recently saw for the 3rd or 4th time House of Games by Mamet with Joe Mantegna and Lindsay Crouse.
Aside from enjoying the twists, turns, and ending, I also was intrigued by the rhythm and repetition of the dialogue.
Definitely one of my all-time favorite films.

Bodo the Apostate, a novel set during the reign of Louis the Pious and end of the Carolingian Empire.
