Well, here we are. Today is the big day, and we can start finding out what you all – well those of you in North America – think of the film The Eagle. To mark the day I am re-reading the actual book The Eagle of the Ninth! Many, many thanks to Duncan Kenworthy the producer and the team he assembled to bring Rosemary Sutcliff’s book lovingly to the big screen.
