Favorite Film

I found this mini series to be absolutely true to the Book by Sir Walter Scott! In some places almost verbatim. It was true to the era it took place in, and the acting was fabulous and believable. I've watch it more times than I can count, and still find it as thrilling and insightful as the first time I watched it. I will continue to watch it over and over again, and will never tire of it's fresh and genuine appeal.
