Sometimes we can surprise ourselves, that there is a part of us that can still believe.<BR/><BR/><B>Andi</B> Oh yes -- Peter S. Beagle wrote the book and the script for the film. So the story is pretty consistent between both. Do pick up the book if you have time. It's worth it.darkorpheushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02565452271408221461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15914227.post-20911163190019388662008-04-07T04:00:00.000+08:002008-04-07T04:00:00.000+08:00I saw The Last Unicorn when I was very young, and ...I saw The Last Unicorn when I was very young, and I just loved it.

I always wondered if I would see a unicorn and now it is too late for me I think as well. I do like to think I would recognise one and not need a fake horn.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15914227.post-2164223043430524892008-04-06T22:50:00.000+08:002008-04-06T22:50:00.000+08:00Rebecca Hi, thanks for dropping by.
