It's been a long time since this post, but I hope you are still around.
From Here to Eternity is my favourite novel ever. A truly great book. Done no justice at all by the movie. The mini series in the late 70's did a good job of the book though. Unfortunately it has never come on the telly again here, and I cannot find it on DVD or video.
A Thin Red Line was also very good. Whistle was a bit obsessed with the steamy side of things I thought, but the ending was something else.
I am re reading From Here to Eternity. I think it is going to be even better this time. A marvellous book. Real people. A rather odd hero..a man whose principles meant everything and eventually cost him his life.
I could talk about this book forever.
