I haven't actually read the book, but seen different tv and movie adaptions. And in general they are great. Fantastic story. I guess I have to get around to reading the actual book :) Thanks for the tip. It wouldn't hurt to give a little more info about the plot though :)
Yeah, the movies are great. I love the one with Gerard Depardieu; you are welcome; ok, next time I'll give a bit more info :) But I thought, the story is well-known
