Quote:By your description the book was made into a movie with Christopher Lambert. It was called "Druids" as well.Yeah, i've seen that movie. It's similar in the manner that they are both from the Gallic point of view, but the book has no relation to that movie as far as I know. I mean, maybe it could have been inspired by the book in some way, but I don't know. That was a french movie so it seems likely that such a movie would have been made about him anyways, at some point, with him being somewhat of a national hero and all. In France the movie was called "Vercingetorix", but to the American market they changed it to Druids. The book is very different (different characters & sub-plots etc.) much more engrossing and gives a look at what tribal life in Gaul may have been like. It's pretty neat.
