Pillars of the Earth C4

gamey game

[DS23]

I saw the trailers last week but was put off by it being 2 hours long, and the fact I never heard of the "famous" book or any of the "all star" cast.

Worth a look?

it was published in 1989 and has sold something like 15 million copies which puts it in the all-time-top 100 books in terms of sales. so i think it would be fair to say it is famous. it's a ripping good historical yarn and worth a look. the sequel came out a few years ago and is much in the same vein.

One of the cast:

Donald Sutherland - he's new I think, never done much before, but his son has.
