Watched TV: Saw Tom's Midnight Garden


Watched TV: Saw Tom's Midnight Garden (Willard Carroll, 1999). Book by Philippa Pearce. Yawn. Cannot understand for the life of me why this thing's so successful, with a zillion adaptations and tie-in products and what not. I'm a sucker for good children's fiction, but this is simply boring. Not even the fine James Wilby + the charming Greta Scacchi + the inimitable Joan Plowright could make me enjoy it. I'd rather go CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien, Eoin Colfer, Philip Pullman or JK Rowling any day.

She and all the members of the "flock"—Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman and Angel—are just like ordinary kids—only they have wings and can fly. It may seem like a dream come true to some, but their lives can morph into a living nightmare at any time...like when Angel, the youngest member of the flock, is kidnapped and taken back to the "School" where she and the others were experimented on by a crew of wack jobs. Her friends brave a journey to blazing hot Death Valley, CA, to save Angel, but soon enough, they find themselves in yet another nightmare—this one involving fighting off the half-human, half-wolf "Erasers" in New York City. Whether in the treetops of Central Park or in the bowels of the Manhattan subway system, Max and her adopted family take the ride of their lives. Along the way Max discovers from...
