...Oh poor man! One can look too hard for faeries.<br /><br />I'm always really impressed by the quality of the films that come out of Scotland (and Ireland!). We have so many great stories in our heritage - our history is such a rich source of inspiration. Do you know of any showings of "Kirk"? <br /><br />There's one film I'm really looking forward to next year - an adaptation of "Eagle of the Ninth" by Rosemary Sutcliff - I've been waiting about 5 years since I first heard it was being made!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067023107829045075.post-38507453632672821422009-11-24T12:49:04.581+00:002009-11-24T12:49:04.581+00:00Oh my goodnesss I want to see this!

After reading some of his *Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns, and Faeries*, I have determined to print out what I can for further reading. One of my favorite books of all time is George MacDonald's *The Portent*, which weaves "the second sight" into a mystery and romance. Have you read it?Richard Jesse Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16526212532259535346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067023107829045075.post-81116751126912630772009-11-24T03:49:15.241+00:002009-11-24T03:49:15.241+00:00Ruthie, you always manage to bring us the best mag...Ruthie, you always manage to bring us the best magic!
