Timeline
Ok - I get it now. I get why this book and movie failed. Talk about lost opportunities!Its one thing to talk about why history is important, its another thing to show it. Timeline had ample means of demonstrating the differences in cultures yet we are never given any glimpse into 14th Century France.
Another frustration - the book/movie has the French as the good guys and the Brits as the bad. Why not show the good and bad in each?
As I've planned to get into the cultural differences AND show both the Romans and the Iceni as complex characters (or rather, gray characters) - filled with good and bad on both sides, I'm hoping CP will make for a better version of what was attempted with Timeline.
