As Gilda said the movie is called "The Time Machine". Staring Guy Pearce and Mark Addy. Jeremy Irons has a brief roll in the film. The music is by Klaus Badelt and is in my opinion, lovely. Check the link to amazon.com  below to see the cover.

You can't get this novel free online that I know of.  Maybe try a used book store~you could pick up a copy for about $1.00.  Try Spark Notes if you have already read the entire novel~it might help you.  http://www.sparknotes.com/

I am amazed that this question was asked. I thought the book too obscure to be noticed in this day and age. \n\nI loved it. A bit convoluted but brilliant. It has the potential to be a fantastic movie but it has to be done to match its brothers. Peter Jackson is a must here.

This Movie is amazing.\n\nI first watched it in 1996 in a D.C. theatre. \n\nI realy suggest everyone watch it, it's interesting that you liked it too. \n\nI've looked it up though and it's "not in stock".\n\nStrange.

I saw this back around the same age. I searched for it some time ago on Netflix and asked them to add it to their catalog. Your question reminded me to check, and it seems that they've added it. So if you get Netflix, you can get it on there, or you can just go to the link to see some info on it anyway:\n\nhttp://www.netflix.com/MovieDisplay?movieid=60020426&trkid=189530&strkid=71631941_0_0\n\nThey may sell it on Amazon.com as well. I haven't seen it since I was little, but I'm guessing it's not as exciting as it was then. It's a French film, and only 34 minutes long.

I have read this book a couple of times and am looking forward to the movie.\n\nI think it is a great piece of fiction.  Sure, there are some truths in it, but for the most part it is pure fiction.  I have been to many of the sites that he pointed to in the book and some just aren't the way he stated.\n\nI think that it makes baseless claims about Jesus being married and having a child, and a few other things, but that is his perogotive as a writer of fiction.\n\nI am Catholic and am not in a hissy or upset or mad that the book was written, but I am upset and mad when people use it as a basis to trash my Catholic faith.  It is FICTION!  He says so himself!  But regardless of being true or not, I look at it this way, if Jesus was married and had a child, what better roll model for me, as a Catholic father to have?

Puh-lease.  Check out who wrote the book.  A black man.  Who produced the movie?  a black man.  Who stars in the movie?  A black man.  \n\nHey I'm getting pissed, there aren't enough white people in positive roles in that movie!  It should be banned.  jk

This book is hands down one of the best pieces of young adult literature ever written!  I loved it.  I read it once for pleasure and again for english class in eighth grade.  you should also check out the movie.\n\nPonyboy is a hero for a couple of different reasons:\n\nHe stands by Johnny after he kills the soc, and stays with him all the way through until when johnny dies in the end.  He is a hero this way because he stands by his friends through the good and the bad.  That is a great charecteristic for anyone to have.\n\nHe is also a hero because he saved the kids from burning inside the old church.  This is the biggest reason for him being a hero.\n\nThe last reason is that he went to fight in the rumble, even though he didnt feel well.  He knew that his friends needed him, and he stood by them, once again showing his great characteristic of loyalty to his friends.

just watch it. it might help if you read the book but prolly not cause if you are like me you'll be so busy bitching about how they slaughtered the book that you will actually miss the movie. So maybe it is better not to have read the book. Now having seen the History Channel thingymajigger on it I would suggest that you go into the theatre with a very open mind,cause some of the things that they are suggesting goes against everything that we have been raised to believe (if you were raise Catholic or Christian) or that you have heard around you (which you can't miss unless you live in a cave but obviously you don't so you know what I am talking about!)

I read up on it a little. It was actually a remake of the movie wings of Desire. I didn't however see if it was indeed based on a book as well.\n\nHere is the link:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_Angels\n\nHere is the link for Wings of Desire:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wings_of_Desire

Hi Amy, not sure what the previous post was about, but it was clearly uncalled for.\n\nAs a lawyer who has seen the movie (albeit a while back) I am sure there are many issues you could raise.  This is all just sort of stream of consciousness off the top of my head, so I apologize if it's not too organized, but here are a few thoughts.\n\n1)  It seems to me that much of the protagonist's (I've forgotten his name) actions are designed at misleading others.  If he does this for his own material gain he may be comitting fraud (for example, doesn't he mislead the former Marlboro man into accepting a cash settlement of some sort-?--that could be a fraudulent inducement into a contract).\n2)You also might want to look into whether or not there are any applicable lobbying laws he violates.\n3)  Are there laws against "pushing"cigarettes to minors (I'm thinking of the little classroom lecture he gives) or something similar.\n\nThe best way to do legal research for applicable cases or statutes is using lexis nexis or Westlaw.  To the unitiated these databases can be daunting, but if you are at a large university you may be able to get access at the law library.  Failing that, you might want to go to a local law library and ask the librarian for help (call ahead and explain the situation to clear access ahead of time).  Yet another option is to check out www.findlaw.com, which generally provides access to cases and articles free of charge, but is no where near as sophisticated as Lexis or Westlaw.  Finally, you might call your state bar association's relevant sub group or a Washington Lobbying or ethics organization (I do not know but suspect there are several) and see if they have any suggestions.  Research is about getting your hands dirty and hitting dead ends until something clicks into place.  Good luck!

I remember reading this book back in High School. I don't remember any of it though.  Have you tried sparknotes.com?  If not, I know it is a movie. That probably doesn't help you much though.  Go to sparknotes.\n\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/flies/

I would like to suggest that you re-phrase this question, giving a little more detail about which cast?  Which play?  Which film?  As it stands, your question seems to make no sense.  It may seem like a simple question to you, but it is actually quite incomprehensible.  Is this a play in some theatre in New Jersey?\n\nThe more detailed a question, the better the answer.  Sorry not to be able to help you this time.

Just got back from seeing it, too.  Loved it but was sad about Jean going nuts and Scott likely being dead.  Don't think Xavier is, though.  Think he's the guy in the bed in the scene at the end.  My friends went to the earlier showing (like, 20 minutes before me--I couldn't find them anywhere!) but I saw them after my show let out and they were like, "Did you stay for the scene after the credits?"  I am so glad they went to the first showing or I would have missed it!  They all came back in with me and we watched that last scene.\nBut even if Patrick Stewart doesn't want to do a fourth one (rumour?) it sure didn't seem like an ending to me.\nAlso, I'd like to add that I haven't read the comics and I heard that people who love the comics did not love the movie.  So I loved it as a movie and not as an incarnation of the comic.

it is a GREAT movie/book i read the book and it is so addicting!! read this interview:\n\nHOW MUCH OF THIS NOVEL IS TRUE?\nThe Da Vinci Code is a novel and therefore a work of fiction. While the book's characters and their actions are obviously not real, the artwork, architecture, documents, and secret rituals depicted in this novel all exist (for example, Leonardo Da Vinci's paintings, the Gnostic Gospels, Hieros Gamos, etc.). These real elements are interpreted and debated by fictional characters. While it is my belief that some of the theories discussed by these characters may have merit, each individual reader must explore these characters' viewpoints and come to his or her own interpretations. My hope in writing this novel was that the story would serve as a catalyst and a springboard for people to discuss the important topics of faith, religion, and history. \n\nBUT DOESN'T THE NOVEL'S "FACT" PAGE CLAIM THAT EVERY SINGLE WORD IN THIS NOVEL IS HISTORICAL FACT?\nIf you read the "FACT" page, you will see it clearly states that the documents, rituals, organization, artwork, and architecture in the novel all exist. The "FACT" page makes no statement whatsoever about any of the ancient theories discussed by fictional characters. Interpreting those ideas is left to the reader. \n\nIS THIS BOOK ANTI-CHRISTIAN?\nNo. This book is not anti-anything. It's a novel. I wrote this story in an effort to explore certain aspects of Christian history that interest me. The vast majority of devout Christians understand this fact and consider The Da Vinci Code an entertaining story that promotes spiritual discussion and debate. Even so, a small but vocal group of individuals has proclaimed the story dangerous, heretical, and anti-Christian. While I regret having offended those individuals, I should mention that priests, nuns, and clergy contact me all the time to thank me for writing the novel. Many church officials are celebrating The Da Vinci Code because it has sparked renewed interest in important topics of faith and Christian history. It is important to remember that a reader does not have to agree with every word in the novel to use the book as a positive catalyst for introspection and exploration of our faith. \n\nWHAT DO YOU THINK OF CLERICAL SCHOLARS ATTEMPTING TO "DISPROVE" THE DA VINCI CODE? \nThe dialogue is wonderful. These authors and I obviously disagree, but the debate that is being generated is a positive powerful force. The more vigorously we debate these topics, the better our understanding of our own spirituality. Controversy and dialogue are healthy for religion as a whole. Religion has only one true enemy--apathy--and passionate debate is a superb antidote. \n\nPARTS OF THE DA VINCI CODE DESCRIBE THE ACTIVITIES OF THE RELIGIOUS GROUP OPUS DEI. HOW DOES OPUS DEI FEEL ABOUT YOUR NOVEL? \nI worked very hard to create a fair and balanced depiction of Opus Dei. Even so, there may be those who are offended by the portrayal. While Opus Dei is a very positive force in the lives of many people, for others, affiliation with Opus Dei has been a profoundly negative experience. Their portrayal in the novel is based on numerous books written about Opus Dei as well as on my own personal interviews with current and former members. \n\nSOME OF THE HISTORY IN THIS NOVEL CONTRADICTS WHAT I LEARNED IN SCHOOL. WHAT SHOULD I BELIEVE?\nSince the beginning of recorded time, history has been written by the "winners" (those societies and belief systems that conquered and survived). Despite an obvious bias in this accounting method, we still measure the "historical accuracy" of a given concept by examining how well it concurs with our existing historical record. Many historians now believe (as do I) that in gauging the historical accuracy of a given concept, we should first ask ourselves a far deeper question: How historically accurate is history itself?\n\nARE YOU
