(Another's) Thoughts on "The Golden Compass"

I can't say that I've read any of Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials. I'm interested to read them at some point, but all the books... *le sigh*

However, I came across a great article written by Jeffrey Overstreet discussing the movie The Golden Compass in a very intelligent manner. I highly encourage you to check it out.

    Jason, thanks for the Jeffrey Overstreet link. I've read his work and enjoy his writing and perspective.

    Last week I got the Christianity Today Movie newsletter--a more brief but also thoughtful commentary:

    Aside from the one email that's been making the rounds, parents seem to object to "Golden Compass" being marketed to their kids, where Dan Brown marketed his fiction to adults.

    Keep up the good writing!
    Dave
