These release dates for the DVD of The Eagle film by Kevin MacDonald, based on the  historical novel for children and young adults The Eagle of the Ninth by Rosemary Sutcliff, are provisional. The DVD is already out in Canada, Singapore and the USA. John Ellis in Illinois has just commented elsewhere on this blog: “Here in Illinois, I have just watched this wonderful film. Absolutely great work by everyone involved. If one were to own just one Roman legion film, this should be that one. Authentic to a fault. There is a release with alternate endings and an unrated version. I honestly cannot praise this film enough.”
