I have been wondering about this movie. After all the knee-jerk reactions to Harry Potter, I have been sitting on the sidelines wondering what was real and what was sparring with shadows. My older boys (now 17 and 19) read the Golden Compass in elementary school, and never said a word to me about it. We have it out in our playroom somewhere --- unfortunately, SOMEONE turned the shelves of paperbacks into an avalanche when they were looking for something, and I couldn't find the Golden Compass if my life depended on it. Anyway, I generally like forming my own opinions about these things. But I think that your take on this is right on. Hi Richard, Thanks for the insight. I have been wondering about this movie.

I shared this on the sideboard of my blog, and posted a brief recommendation with a link. Thank you! Richard, I couldn’t have said it better, so I didn’t try.
