I bought the Golden Compass DVD because I was in the process of listening to the Audio book of Philip Pullman's "The Northern Lights"; the first in his Dark Materials trilogy. I have read all the trilogy and was fascinated to see how they would interpret a fasinating and descriptive work. The special effects used to represent the "demons" was excellent and whilst the film basically folowed the story it did not do justice to Pullman's descriptive narative. Despite this if a DVD of the "Subtle Knife" or "The Amber Spyglass" were to be made then I would most certainly buy them.
I bought this dvd for my grandaughter to watch as she had read the book which the film is based on for a school project. I think it helped her to understand the book a bit better although the book went into more detail.
